so I have a 3' long tank and it's only a foot in dept , It has a black flex brace in the center. Atm I have 2 leds the 32" fluval reef leds on one side and a kessil 160 tuna blue on the other . I'm afraid that when corals start growing im going to need the other half of my tank but the fluval can't do the trick my tanks to deep for the leds. And the brace for the tank is in the way for my kessil to go in the middle so I need 2 lights essentially :/.so I don't want to really spend more then 500$ I guess my options are another kessil 160 tuna blue which are around 300 or maybe even the kessil A350 tuna blue the next size up i know it's over kill for the 350 but Atleast I can put it on a cube frag tank or a bigger tank like 75-100 gallon down the road . But there's also the razzor lights for around the same as the kessil 350 im kinda stuck on what to do , is it better to stick to the same brand or use 2 different lights on 1 tank . Idk I need help guys lol

Also do you know of a controller is worth the 100$? Because even the kessil turned max blue on the dile still looks whit ish it's not a true blue,

Why 160 and not 350? Will the 350 really be a bad choice for me ? Just trying to educate my self here

Btw im not disagreeing 1 bit just wonder why 160 and not 350? Is it because the light will burn out by the time I upgrade tanks lol

I sent you a PM in regards to ordering a kessil. As I can save you some $$ this weekend!

I just bought a xr15w pro with hanger from unibob and I have to say it's an amazing light. The quality is outstanding and the programmability is more than anyone could ever use. I guess you would have to get two and they are not on sale but if rations are good enough for Kevin tran then they sure and the heck too good for a dude like me. 2 of them with a reef link controller would be around 2 g's though.
