    I'm consolidating some of my smaller tanks into a bigger tank next month. A trend I keep doing. I think I've finally settled on the Reef Octopus Luxury T90 which is a 48 gallon system. Dimensions are 36" by 17" by 17".

    I'm considering the following two scenarios for lights. I'll be using an MP10 I already have in the system or possibly buying an MP40.

    2x AI Vega

    or

    1x Maxspect Razor 24" and MP40 or some new corals with MP10.

    or

    2x Sol Blue (1 carry over) and spend $700 for new corals/MP40.

    Livestock now is SPS heavy with a few acans and tracys thrown in.


    I'm leaning towards the razor because I like the way it's mounted and it's just not possible to do a ceiling mount where the tank will be placed. Meaning it'll be a tank top rim mount either way.
