Tank is 36l x 22w x 22h.

I'd like to have LPS on the bottom (mostly hammers, frogspawn) and SPS like stylophora and pocillopora on top. Top of rock structure is about 10 inches from the sandbed.

What's the best way to handle lighting? I currently have two Hydra 32s and I'm not opposed to getting a third or adding a couple of Blades. Is it possible to have enough light for the SPS on top without cooking the LPS below?

Appreciate some thoughts.
 
I have similar tank and started with 2 Radions XR15 by 6 months I change to ATI T5 6 bulb with 2 AI Blades and so far Im very happy

I could maybe change in the feature to 2 XR30 or 2 Reefi Uno and the Blades

I like a lot of light for growth specially for SPS
