If this is going to keep corals you’ll need a lot more light.
right now I’m running Red Sea 160 at 100% percent and 2 xr15s pros at 100% and the acros I have seem to be doing fine I’m borrowing my buddys par meter next week to check the park because I do have more light if needed
 
I'd say you'll need a lot more light as well and get rid of the black sand. run a magnet over it and see what it picks up.
 
I’ve got a buddy whose got extra 4 Gen 6 xr 30s that’s he would give me them for free because he upgraded to the Kessil ap9x because he didn’t like the “shimmer the xr30s gave off and he’s trying to get them off his hands but I do also have 2 Neptune skylight that I’ve had for another tank that I never ended up setting up so depending on my par readings I’ll see where I have to mount the lights
