I'm looking for an LED fixture for my 30 breeder (36*18*12high). My budget is $400 or less.

I'd like good spread coverage and I am more of a 20k color fan than 10k with the ability to have sps, LPs and soft coral. I see a bunch of fixtures that come in 16", 24" and 30-36". Is it more like a pendant where 24" would be good spread? I'm OK with putting more sps under the lights and lower light at the edges but ideally something I can control, to a degeee, the colour. Programming isn't so important but if it comes with it of course I will play with it. I would never use a remote control.

I've read about reef breeders value and photon series, maxspect razor, D120, T2140 or equvallent lights.

What are your suggestions in terms of size and fixtures?
