I was just lucky enough to score a pretty awesome deal on an upgrade to my 90. I found a 220 with trigger 39 sump along, ASM various 8 return pump, 2 MP 40s, 2 48" reef breeder photon v2+. I understand that the MP 40s won’t be enough for a tank that size, but if I add my 2 maxspect gyre xf230s will that be enough flow? I have read very good things about the Photon lights. Included are 2 48s this being a 6 foot tank there will be some overlap when I mount them in the canopy. Will this be too much light? I’m beyond happy with the deal and I cannot wait to get it home and setup.

Welcome to the 225 club I run 4 black boxes and 4 t4 over my 225. My buddy has 4 hydra 52HD and 4 t5 over his you will be fine.
