Hello,
I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a tank upgrade (~130g that is 55" long)and think I will need to purchase new lights as well. My current setup is two 16" SB Reef LEDs over a 48".

My current setup I bought 2 years ago. because it was cheap and simple. Before that, I took several years off from the hobby so much of this stuff is new to me.

Thanks in advance for any ideas or opinions anyone would like to share!
 
I would say t5 set up as primary light source.

If you are looking to stay led only ReefBreeders 48” is a good choice.

I saw beat growth in my school tank with t5’s bs my Chinese black box LEDs from
eBay.

My 2 cents.

I bought the Aquaticlife Hybrid and it has worked well for me. You might even be able to mount your existing LED's into the fixture. The description of the brackets included only list the major manufacturers like AI hydra and Kessil but could have sworn people were also mounting their SB LED's on those brackets. Could be a good way to keep the pop of LED with what you already have (do your research on compatibility) and the coverage of a 4 bulb 48" T5 fixture.
