Would 2 light this tank? Using a reef bredders 32 v1 now with some shadowing at the ends.
Weird tank to light because of the bracing. Just have soft,lps and zoas.

I have the same tank but the larger size 144G. What I did for lighting to have no shadowing was 2-AP700 Kessil in the middle openings. Then on the smaller openings between the bracing I put some Kessil 360 in each corner. Then I ran 2 bulb 48” T5 in the very back. I have corals growing in all spots and no shadowing. It’s a weird shape tank and the corners are the problem so this was the only thing I found that worked for me. Here is a couple pics and one shows the rt corner for you.

Oh yeah before the Kessils I ran an 8 bulb 60” fixture alone and that set up worked great too but I wanted to get the colors of LED so I switched. You could add T5 to your current light and that will be plenty.

The light can be adjusted to the suitable site.

Can you get a hanging kit for these lights?
Hello, like a picture show, you can see the black and white hanging kit, we have the black one but haven't the white one. The white one is the Industrial aluminum 20mm*20mm.

I have the same tank as well and love it. Still working out the flow on it though. Mixed SPS and LPS tank. Have 2 MP40’s and 1 AI Nero5. Where would you recommend the placement of them? Have a sand substrate so have to be careful with that stirring up. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
