I'm looking for lighting options for my 55 gallon soon-to-be reef tank. Mostly gonna be full of LPS but with some softies as well. Are there any good LED light fixtures on sale? I've been looking through light fixtures but I don't know which ones are suitable for my tank. It's 4 feet long.
 
Almost any LED out there will work for LPS. Depending on your budget, all of the major fixtures will produce great results. Kessil works well of course.

If you're on a budget check out the Noopsyche K3's as well.
 
Its gonna matter about aesthetics of inside and outside of the tank as well as budget and what type of corals you plan to keep to make any suggestions about what light fixture you might want/need
 
Options can range from pretty cheap like smatfarm, noopsyche or led bar options (quantareef or orphek, etc) to more expensive like ecotech or reefi uno. There are also more white lights like orphek icon or more blue like aqua illumination and ecotech. Then there are those that are great with shimmer like kessil. There are a lot out there but depends a lot on preference
