I am looking at moving from a 28gal tank to a 45gal that is 26 x 21 x 19. I want have it as a reef/fish tank. It will have a glass top to it, I am looking at a
Current USA Orbit Marine LED Saltwater Reef Lighting System
48 Dual Daylight/48 Dual Actinic LEDs, 96 LEDs Total

36 watts


I want to have lps/sps will this be a strong enough light?

The orbits are great but not for sps. Check out some off of the cheap knockoff lights there stronger and cheaper than the orbits.

I am in agreement with mauler. The 120-165watt LEDs would be the way to go if you want to keep SPS.

The new knock offs can really compete with the higher end models made in America.
