Will just one of these 100 watts or 2 of the 30 watts work for a 29 gallon?

While it will, dont expect the very best color and growth with it- but yes will be sufficient.
100watts not bad but 165w ideal for PAR, and spectrums

What about two 30 watts?
Youre better with the nicrew 100w which ive heard nice things from users.
Go to upper right corner under search and type in Nicrew. You will see user postings regarding performance and opinions on them

Would the 100w be okay for growing softy’s and lps? Zoas and euphillyas are the main ones i want.

Either the 100 (2 puck) or 150 turned down (3 puck) will work fine for 29g.
I’ve used the 150 on 30g and it would grow anything.
It’s only a few bucks (35g) more but gives you more room to grow.
Sure softies today, LSP but what about sticks, clam?
Again, either will work fine.
You need a timer and only 2 channel with 6 intensity settings.
There not super quiet, the fan turns on and off, not bad, but not silent like say Visparspectra, and equitable light in my mind.
Blues provide a great pop!

Do you know how high i should have the 100w one and the intensity of the light it should be at?
