Whatsup fellas, I went back and forth a lot but I decided on going with a 230 system, 190gal display 72x26x24.
I’m pretty sure I’m gonna do gyres icecap 4k’s maybe one on each side with 2 nero3’s one on each side of the internal overflow to blow behind the rocks.
I am stuck on the lighting though, any one have suggestions? I don’t think I’m covering the tank so idk if maybe a hanging setup with one arm going across or I could clip multiple on to the back, I just don’t know which lights to go with. Any suggestions??
Thanks!
 
I think it depends on what you are planning on keeping. SPS dominant, mixed reef, etc.

I left that out ****, mixed reef most lps but a few acros and such I guess along the top mostly LPS
 
Would you put them long ways - - - stretching across , or more of a l l l formation

They are pretty square the way they light. Each can cover 24*24.

If you want even more coverage the 200s are great as well and 3 of them is barely $1000 with all mounts and controller
