Lighting Recommendation for Soft Coral Tank
I am interested in setting up a 30 gallon (36"×12"×16") soft coral specific tank; what would you all recommend for lighting options? To be clear, there would be no plans for this tank to evolve into anything beyond soft corals.

Got a lighting budget?
Want dimming? Wifi,etc.. Led? T5? Many soft corals would be quite happy with the same light other types of corals would benefit from.. I wouldnt just think softies require less than anything else... Of course not all softies are the same either.. Budget and desires feature set of what you would like out of a light would help narrow the suggestions..

I definitely want an LED light, and I will not be using a WiFi controlled light, so it would have to be analog friendly. Budget is flexible; I just don't need an SPS light.
