if you’re worried about the disco ball effect you could go for something with blended lighting instead of individual leds. something like a kessil A80 for a more budget plug and play option and configure it at max intensity about 8-12 inches above the water for good spread as another option too, for softies and lps but if you plan to add sps in the future you’ll definitely need stronger lighting.

hope this helps

i running hydras and disco is minimal, AI lights has some kind of diffuser in place(i tink). if u really worried disco, u can tune down red green and run mostly blues, with only 1 dominant type spectrum the blending will be ok. Just my 2 cents.
