Thanks for the reply. 36x18… Torch Corals, Digis, couple others but plan on adding more in the near future. As I mentioned, I would really like white light but one that is suitable for corals so I can see well… budget doesn’t matter but don’t need anything super crazy yet either

The 36 inch length makes it a bit inconvenient with the coverage of most lights. Most lights that can handle the coral you have, have a spread of 24 inches like the AI Prime, Hydra 32, or xr15s. And others that have a 36 inch spread like the Hydra 52 and xr30 would run you over 1k.
The Ai blades are a good options with the 18 inch front to back you have. You would just have to decide what colors you want.
I personally would go with an AI Hydra 32 with two small ai blades on the sides to help cover the 12 inches the hydra misses out on.
How much are you asking?
Thanks for the replyReefbreeder photon 32 would work......I have a 3o breeder alsoI use a LEDzeal....which is similar to a photon.
