So I ordered your v2+ 50 and it should be in this week. This is for a 125g 18" in width x 72" long. I have a custom valence built that housed 32" SBR & 2 16" Mars. (one on ea. side) The problem I have is I am getting some STN on just the front bottom of some large birds nest. Do you think this new light will have a broader coverage? Or, do I need to add a lumen bar to the front? I have 10 1/2" of front to back valence depth. Also the bottom of my valence is hung 12" above the top of tank. I can bring the lights up higher. The current lights are 14" above water. What is optimal height? Mixed reef lots of sps.

@Reef Breeders
You had mentioned you'd share the actual wattage used for the bars (vs. Listed wattage), but I couldn't find that update. Will you provide that information?

I'm looking into these now, but was looking for that info when I stumbled onto this thread.
