So I run three 250 watt radiums with reefbrites as supplements. I was looking at the new Kessil AP700. The tank is 125L Gallon Aquarium: 72″ x 18″ x 21″. There are two braces about 1.5-2 inches creating 3 square openings. Is it possible two use two Kessil AP700 positioning the fixture over each brace elongated so there is a bulb on each side?

Hope you can kind of visualize it. Would that work for that long of a tank? I also am limited on height also since there is a hood so height would only be 12" above the tank. Hope everyone can understand my logic as far as using two fixtures for the tank. Thanks
 
2 AP 700 should be ok. I believe one would cover 36" nicely, so having two would be exactly 72" coverage.
