So I currently have a 20g IM peninsula, I have been struggling with trying to aquascape it for a while now and I came up with the only solution, I need a bigger tank lol. So I will be getting a 50g AIO, the dimensions are about 30x24x16. Is there a single LED light fixture that would cover this area that I could keep all types of coral? I currently have two AI 16HD Reefs that was going to go over the 20g but if I can bring it down to 1 light fixture I'd prefer that
 
The 2 AI Primes would probably work pretty well. If you like the Primes, an AI Hydra 64 probably gets close to the 30" spread.

Reefbreeders V2 has a 24" model that would cover 30".
Radion XR30 would get close, maybe not the very edges.

For something more budget friendly, I think Marsaqua and Viparspectra still make the 300 watt models? They would cover 30" no problem. The 165 watt versions probably get close.
Another cheap solution would be a Nicrew 150 watt.
