Well that’s pretty much the question:). Still looking into supplement lighting for my 3, kessil 360’s. Looking for smallest, width wise (side by side including reflectors) retro available out there. Height is not a factor. Not sure they come any smaller than around 5” wide for a 2 bulb, which is still too wide due to space constraints and position practicality. Any suggestions appreciated!
 
You might have to go single bulb front and back to give you a double bulb. Or just go single. I run the reef brite supra kits on my 180 and I like them a lot.
 
I’d love to go front and rear but unfortunately don’t have room on the front side of my floating hood (it’s smaller than my tank dimensions).

I may have to go with a reefbrite xho strip as they are less tha 2” in width supposedly. At dang near $500 for the 60” one though, now I am contemplating just getting a kessil ap 790 as my center light lol. Oh well, I’ll keep researching:). Thanks for the input
