Are you bored or excited? All you had to write was nova extreme 4x54, all that typing would have taken me a couple of days lol. If that is for your 20 gal. then that should be fine for anything you want to put in there.

That light won't work for you then. Your tank is deep like mine is. The new Nova Extreme Pro is what I am getting. I followed the thread when the Grim Reefer tested them all out and they got pretty good reviews. You will be able to keep everything on your list also. A lot of people here on RC are getting them,and are happy with them so far!

Deep yes but i am planning on High rock work, so most of my corals will be between 6 and 12 inches deep, hence eliminating the need for super powerful lights.

I think you would be happier with the pro.You are going to put all your corals up that high? Well was just trying to help you out but Good Luck anyway.
