Hello.
I recently picked up a AIO 30gl cube and I current have a Kessil A160 on it. This is a new mixes reef with the exception of SPS. It is not my main tank so I am going to focus on Zoa’s..LPS , Softies..etc…my question is if my current Kessil A160 is enough lighting or should I consider upgrading?
Curious what others are using on their AIO tanks in this size..thanks !
 
I have always liked AI hydra's.

I would suggest at 32 hd. That would give you plenty of spread and depth for lighting,
 
Thanks. I always like to see dimensions before commenting on lighting.

Since no SPS, I would run the 160 since you already have it. I agree a hydra would be great. But since you have the kessil already, just run that, and add another 160 if needed in the future.
