Lighting Recommendations

[fishy888]

Originally I was sure I wanted to go with metal halides but I know it's getting harder to find lamps and good reflectors anymore. My biggest concern is the health of my corals but I also want the shimmer effect. What lighting should I go with for a 30 inch deep 4 foot 150 gallon tank? Will LEDs get me enough par on the sand?

Depending on the lens configuration yes they can.
I suggest the BRSTV series about led's on You Tube.

I really liked my LEDs when I had my tank set up. I had a Maxspect Razor over 40 gallons. The color was great.

I will watch their lighting videos for sure. I really like their videos in general. Thank you both for the replies. I'll have to see if the razor comes in a version that'd light a 4ft 150.
