My aquarium is 60x45x45 (cm) in size. I have a MariGlo light on it and I have some soft and LPS corals.

This light is 40w or the same as 6x 39w T5 lights.

I believe/understand this light isn't the of good enough quality (light strength and quality) to grow corals.

What should I be looking for and what light fittings can someone recommend, please.
 
Cheers, I've seen that one. over $1,400 in NZD. Looking for something slightly more affordable.
 
Do you care about things like sunrise/sunset, wifi control, more than 2 channels of control, etc? If so, look into something like reefbreeders photon V2 unit. If you want light that will grow corals, but without any bells and whistles listed, look into black boxes like mars aqua, viparspectra, bloomspect, sb reeflights.
