      Looking for lighting recommendations

      Looking for lighting recommendations For my new cobalt 45g. 25x16.5 viewable area.
      Prolly gonna just be keeping a few fish, softies, lps, anemone.
      I kinda like the pendant style led lights but am on a pretty tight budget. $200-$250 for now.
      Would an ai prime be sufficient? I’m sure I’ll upgrade later but what’s a good starter light?

      I think the recommended coverage for primes is something like 18”x18”, but if you’re not keeping anything that demands a ton of light and are strategic with your scape I think you could get away with one and buy another later to supplement.

      For your price range you can start with 1 AI prime. Place the coral underneath with in a 18x18 inch space. Then later you can add another prime right next to it. I might have a prime For sale if you’re interested. Message me.
