I have a 20 gallon fowlr tank going, after i move next year i was hoping to get into corals but I know my basic led light that came with the tank isn’t strong enough, what would be good for a 20 gallon for soft corals mostly interested in green star polyps zooanthids mushrooms and xenia. preferably a light under 150$

If you want to do softies only, I would recommend the Fluval Marine 3.0 24”. Currently $146.45 on Amazon. But if you want to do nems/LPS/SPS you need the $250 AI Blade or better.
What size ( dimensions) 20?
There is 20, 20l, 20h.
Each will slightly determine what lights are available and what " format".
Typical 20 is 24-ish" wide. 17" deep 12-ish wide.
Light like this is a possible choice for such a tank.
24-36" size
Prism II LED Light Fixture - Marine
Thinner. Lighter. Smarter. The new thinner and lighter AquaMaxx Prism II controllable full HD spectrum LED fixture is created from 100% recycled aluminum. Its brushed silver, ultra-slim profile design gives it an aesthetic edge over the competition, and its updated external smart controller...

Rebranded micmol AFAICT.
Maybe some spectral differences.
NOT waterproof.
Almost 3x the " power" (60w) of the Fluval. At least on paper.
4 Channels only though. Would be helpful to give nm's;
