In general, I recommend 1 90w pendant light for a 2ftx2ft area of mixed reef. So a 90w pendant light of any brand would not sufficiently cover a 36in long 40 breeder. I would recommend 2 50ish-watt lights. These cover about 18inx18in for a mixed reef so 2 will do nicely on a 40 breeder. I would get another Prime or use 2 A160s if you wanted to go with Kessil. I have a link attached for everything you would need if you were to go the 2 kessil route.
