Need Lighting Input

[Flatlandreefer]

I am setting up a 30 " x 30" by 16" reef tank. I have been looking at the ATI 24 inch Sunpower with 8 x 24w bulbs. I am wanting a setup that eventually will be able to handle sps down the road. Will this fixture provide enough light, any other suggestions for a fixture that will meet the demands of this tank?

I currently have a 120 (4x2x2) SPS dominant tank and am running the 36" ATI Hybrid Powermodule 8x39w T5 and it is more than enough light to grow SPS. I think you would be fine. You may want to look into adding some reefbrites for shimmer though. Hope this helps.

I think it will be enough for sps, especially over a 16" deep tank. Mine is 14" and I have an EverGrow IT2080 I got used. It's the same as the 2 I got new 3 years ago and still have over my 180g reef.

I will have the fixture hanging from the ceiling as a pendant, is there a way to mount reefbrites with another fixture that still looks good?
