kessil placement

[mrred]

I have a 90 gal standard tanK with a canopy. Any advise on kessil a350 or 350w. I will be useing 2 of them. I have approx 10" of space above the water.

I guess my question would really be should I purchase the wide or not and what height is best recommended for a 24" deep tank?

The wide is nice to have because it gives you better spread and helps lessen the spotlight-ness of being right under a light fixture.

Definitely need wide imo. I'm running two 360w with 4 bulb t5 added on my 90. Mine are 7" above the water. Higher than 80% intensity starts to burn my sps that are up near top of tank. Wouldn't recommend the narrow beam unless you're hanging 20" above or more, or want some good shadows for some lps and chalices.

Thanks billwill, i was hoping someone had a similar set up to mine.
