   I personally would set up an LED fixture, and if that isn't going to work. I would try to get a T5 HO fixture with at least 4 bulbs.

   I used to use T5 when I had one, worked very well.
   
   You can get a ballast & make a 4 bulb hood very easy & it would work great.

   my 40BR is a mushroom/anemone tank and has a 6 bulb tek light T5 fixture, it's an excellent light and has tons of output, I could keep SPS in there if I wanted
