Hey guys. I run red sea reef 90s (3) on my 300 gallon. I need a 4th light but Im just not liking the red sea coverage on this tank even with white and blues on 100%. Thought about the bigger light of theirs but expensive…

I have a small kessil on my 32 biocube and let me say that is the best lught ever! Love the shimmer. But way out of my market, I got lucky finding a used and the big boy version is just wayyyy too expensive. Was looking at noopsyches but seen some reviews about the app being wonky and a few about their sketch customer-service and shipping. The noops are more in what I can afford.

Thoughts?

Suggestions on another light?

Or just get another red sea 90 when I come across a good deal?

Tank is FOWLR

Of the black boxes, BRS did a test using the three most popular viparspectra came out on top in all categories. I've used them and liked what they offered for LED lights, I went back to T5 though. Less shadowing

Problem is t5 is kinda out of fashion and they are huge fixtures that are hard to hide. But great coverage.
