Hi-currently run 3 g5xr15 pro on my 180g

running it at 50% intensity with the lps/soft setting

soft and los corals

everything seems happy-still wondering if they just need a smidgen more of lighting-like add a 4th one, or add in something else with the lights

2 years in with this tank-any feedback let me know-this was tank six months ago-generally the same now

I have an aquaticlife t5 hybrid with my kessils on my 180. I’m happy with that.
 
With the type of coral you have that should be plenty. You could test your pars to see if you need to increase the intensity.
