Hey, so I’m thinking of setting up a waterbox 7226 that will be sps dominant mainly Acropora and montipora. I’d like to go with only LED To avoid bulb changes and the challenges with heat. What fixtures would you guys reccomend, I’d like to stay with a mainstream brand and hang them on a rod / rack if possible

Edit: I’m open to led T5 combo if I don’t have to build it my self. I don’t trust myself to build somthing that hangs over my tank

I’ve had good luck with xr30 pros x3, euu I sh I did (6) xr15s though. I recently decided to give aquatic life hybrid mount a try with t5s and my xr30s down middle. Hopefully that is helpful :). You can check out brs video on lighting they did about a week ago. It’s very helpful
 
You will get endorsements of all the major brands depending on what that person happens to own. Several brands will fit your needs. Radion and Orphek probably being the two leading established premium brands but there are also some newer ones that show promise. Suggest watching some BRS videos as well as looking at some of the threads on this site.
