I recently filled a 85g Tenecor hex flat back tank. I have an 18" tall canopy that goes on top. It has with two holes for fans if needed. I'm interested in figuring out the best lighting option for my tank.

I'm interested in adding some softies, leathers, mushrooms, maybe an anenome. I'm also thinking maybe a clam down the road. No hard corals that would require a lot of light.

I currently have 3 sunpaq 1552 96W 1 lamp ballasts (came with the tank), and a coralife 36" 2 lamp retrofit (from old tank). I'm willing to start fresh though. Any suggestions. I would prefer to be as energy efficient as possible.

Until now I have had a FOWLR tank with a few mushrooms and invertebrates.
