Lighting for my New 55gal reef

Need some input on lighting options for my new 55gal reef. I have a nuvo fusion 10 being lit by a nanobox tide v3 and love the light but the wife is keeping the 55 lighting situation on a budget. I'm open to MH or Led but I'd like to stay under $500. I'd love to get a new nanobox hybrid but those are a little out of my price range. I'd like to stay very low profile if I could as this one will be in our living room. And I am ok buying some good quality used equipment as well.

What are the dimensions? An ATI Sunpower fixture might be pretty nice, especially for hard corals.

 

Could you get another small NanoBox light and use them both together?

It's a standard size 55. 48x13x20. The nano box tide I have will be staying with the fusion 10 or being sold separately. Don't think Dave has anything that will cover that width except the new hybrid fixtures.

We could do a 36" Sunpower, four bulb ( cut down to two ) and add a few clusters of LEDs in the center.
