I'm planning on buying a JBJ 20RL frag tank. The dimensions are 24 x 20 x 9. I'm trying to nail down the ideal light. I'm looking at the Radion gen3 and the Kessil 260 for LED options. But I'm also very tempted to move away from LEDs as I've grown quite frustrated with my Acans not being able to retain their colors. So I would also consider a MH clip on type light, such as the Coralife Aqualight Advanced. I'm trying to ignore the price differences and just make sure I get the light I will be most happy with.

I'm also wondering which would be the right Kessil for this size tank. Would I want the wide angle or not?

Thanks for any input.
 
I running a kessil A350w on mine.

I ended up with a Kessil A150 on my tank. I should have gone with the 350 though.
