Hi everyone. I have an AIO Tideline 13.4 Peninsula, currently using a Nicrew 30w. I’m looking to upgrade my light because I want to have SPS and LPS. I have a BTA, 3 Hammers, 1 Torch, 2 RFA, 1 Goni. I’m adding monti caps, and ultra elkhorns, would also like to have some chalices or plate corals on the sand bed.

Considering what I hope to achieve, what light is better suited for me? I’ve been reading for days but can’t find a clear answer. I’m leaning towards a K7 Pro V3, is this ok over my 13.4 peninsula? My other 2 choices are the Nicrew 100w or 150w. I do want power, but I don’t want to burn my investment. I do plan to keep the tank for a while, and may also upgrade or get a bigger tank in the future. Please guide me!
 
I’d like to add, I really enjoy blue lighting to see the colors of the corals pop. I want it to be vibrant, if that helps at all between my options listed above
