I have this fixture on my 75-gal reef tank and I love it. It does a great job. I like the moon lights too!

It would work, but the pro is not really that much more maybe $100 if you find it at the right price or used.

Ps i sent you a pm.

I have one on my 90, and my zoas, and mushrooms are doing great.
