Looking to upgrade my lights in the near future and was looking for some advice/thoughts. The tank is a 72g bowfront mixed reef.
 
I currently have a 48" dual t-5 bulb (54 watt each) fixture and i run 2 exoxotic stunner strips. I realize that the lights i have are not intense enough to keep SPS corals, but i have been keeping some LPS and lots of Softies.
 
I would like to get a fixture with intense enough lighting to keep sps and also have the fixture include some LED lunars.  I dont have an exact price range set in stone but i dont want to spend my entire paycheck. Thinking i may even keep my eyes on the Buy/Sale/Trade forum for somebody wanting to sell their setup as it seems everyone is switching to LEDS? Any thoughts on what is a really good setup but wont break the bank?
