So I was given a 60 gallon cube aquarium (24 × 24 × 24 in) and I am looking to put a reef in it at some point in the future. I have only messed with soft corals but would love to venture into other coral such as sps. I have no idea what I would use for lighting and I would like to keep under $200 for all lighting (even if I need 2 lights or more) what can everyone reccomend with links to websites. Thank you all!
 
SPS and under $200 - your options there are really just chinese blackbox LEDs ( 200W actual or so of them) or mars aqua.

I can also ignore sps and still stick with soft coral what kind of options would you think I have? Also do Chinese black boxes work well on big tanks? I have a blackbox on my 20g reef tank and it's great I spent $72 on it
