How many xr15 G5 pro's for an sps dominated redsea reefer 350?

I have been a t5 user mainly and grow lots of acropora and other sps.

I have 3 on my 525 xl and am growing acropora in the center of the tank without issues

At least three

Agreed. I have two XR 30s over my 350 and would prefer to have three.

Three for sure

If you want SPS in all areas successfully then go with 30s. 3 x15 will still be weak.

I'm running 2 xr15g5 blues on a 3ft red sea reefer 300xl . I'm adding a 3rd I really thought 2 would be enough. I was so wrong. As my sps grow I run out of room in the center of the tank where sps grow well on the outer edges sps are not getting enough light.

I'm thinking maybe upgrading my g5s to g6 and running 3 g6 xr15 will give me the coverage I need. Supposedly the g6 spread is way better than the g5. Especially with a defusor
