Out of the following, which light would you choose?

Please list why.

Tank is a mixed reef, 20 inch cube solana. If something is more expensive, it has to be worth it. (If it's 2x as much money but only 20% better, that's no worth it to me.

Thanks for the help!

This will be the last lighting poll (at least until the next tank ;) )

I'm actually leaning away from a canopy at this time. Unless something incredible came up and I couldn't pass it up, I'm going to try and get a hanging fixture.

Thank you for the input though!

if your handy i use the lumenmax with a 20k radium and i did a diy supp. with 12 of the royal blue crees having it this way i could really adjust the color in the tank to what i want by adjusting the intensity of the leds the leds are not cheap ithink my total was about 125.00 for the whole led setup. the leds are real bright enough to really notice the added blue to the tank you also get great coverage with the lumenmax reflector
