Hi all, I've got a 36" deep peninsular tank that I'm debating lighting on. My plans are for the tank to be LPS dominant with a few SPS.
One of my biggest issues starting out is mounting vs funding. I originally ordered 1 - AI Hydra 32HD with a multiple light mount with the plan to order another Hydra 32 in the future after I get things going.
I'm thinking this may be overkill and maybe 3 Prime's would ultimately be better? The problem is my only real "clean" option for mounting the primes is hanging them from the ceiling and since I can't really afford 3 now, I'd have to tolerate mounting arms in the interim (jeez these are expensive).
Thoughts/advice?
