I'm just about to set up 120cm tank and i'm a bit overwhelmed with lighting choices so im looking for help.

The tank is 35cm deep but by the time I add dirt substrate with eco complete on top probably be about 30cm deep. Might run pressurised co2 or just keep going with excel.

I currently have Wave Point® 24” 20-watt 6500k Daylight Photon Energy LED High Output Light Strip on my 60cm tank but i don't like the colour of my neon tetras so any recommendations for my 120 cm tank much appreciated.

Don't really want to spend more than £200.
 
How about CFL bulbs? Way lower than 200 and if your setup allows, easy to move up/down and change to the desired wattage.
This is my setup, in a tank of similar length.
pendants: 45 EUR (3x15 EUR)
cfl bulbs: 15 EUR (3x5 EUR)
total: 60 EUR
