lighting for 92 corner

[Trillaman954]

just finished my 92 gallon corner and would like to get good lighting for it. i already have 2 AI primes from the other tank that ill use as supplemental . i want to grow sps and lps

what are the dimensions and budget for this? Do you need it to mount onto the tank or can you mount it with a bracket or from the ceiling?

I can mount from ceiling, nice idea. 48" front corner to other corner, bows across the front, 34" for each side panel, 25" tall

led bars would be a pretty cheap way to light it. If i was to use the ai primes i would most likely situate 1 bar along each 34" side angled inward to the tank and 1 bar along the front angled inward with the 2 ai primes in between. The primes would be your main color control with the bars adding in extra coverage and par.
You could also get 1 larger light like a reefbreeders light (i would prob wait for the meridian release)

ive been trying to find the actual lighting footprint for the quanta atlas and that might work really well for you if hanging from the ceiling. That with the 2 ai primes in front angled towards the back of the tank might work really well but i havent gotten enough info on the atlas yet. Says a 3'x3' spread with the reflector but without reflector it might be perfect
