I'm looking to upgrade my ReefLED 50 to a Kessil AP9X. I'd like to cut down on shadowing and have better light penetration. I have the Max Nano Peninsula which is 23" long x 17.7" wide x 17.7" deep. I like that the AP9X mount can swivel to the side so I can mount it in my AIO chamber and rotate it 90* so it covers the length of the peninsula.
Is this 16.5" light way too big for my tank?
If I'm running my 50 watt light at 60% would I run the 185 watt Kessil at around 16% to start?
Are there any other lighting options I should consider if I'm making a big upgrade? I like the shimmer effect but I can live without it for better performance.
