Need some advice

[Datnerd14]

Hey(sorry about the name I made it when I was 12) I am Pretty new to the saltwater side of things. I have been commercially taking care of a couple aquariums in my city for a couple years, and I just took on my first saltwater aquarium. I have recently Discovered I have a phosphate, lighting and algae problem. So I recently discovered during a thunderstorm I had a heater explode and it shorted my whole lighting rig. My clients want to have corals and I personally would prefer to be running led’s for my lighting.I have a 400 dollar budget and 6ft x2ft by 2ft tank and I could use some help finding a lighting setup that would work. Finally I have no prior experience keeping even freshwater plants let alone coral, what is some general things I should aim for in the coral and saltwater side of thing

that’s the inside of the heater post storm

For $400 on a 6ft tank...guess you can get couple of black box and save a few bucks. Ugly boxes that does what it needs to with QA of electric fan
Some will swear by them

I would save more and get 3 ai prime 16 for a budget build.
