Please excuse the mess, I was cleaning...
I have 2 A160WE on a 35g 20"x20"x20" cube. Testing with my Seneye, I get 400 par at the surface right under each light. The sand bed is almost a perfectly flat blanket of 100 par. In the middle is between 250 and 300 par. A160s will grow SPS just fine.

100 par at 100% intensity. I believe it was 400-450 at the surface.... I haven't tested PAR in a long time.
Setting up a new tank now with T5 and A160s.
Thanxs. I Just Cant deside if i need another one a160 in my cube.
Good luck with the New tank!
How do u planing combine the a160 with the T5?
What size cube do you have? I wouldn't go any less than 1 160 per foot for heavy SPS. 360s you can get away with 1 per 2 foot and get the par, but you run into some shading issues.
Aquatic Life 36" T5 hybrid fixture with the A160 mounts(purchased separately)
I have a 22x22 inches and 18 inches height.
I dont do sps. I keep some acans, zoas, ricordeas euphyllias, rock flower anemones and some chalices.
I used to keep my intensity at 60% and 25%color. I have the A160we about 8inches from water surface.
Last 1,5 month i increase my intensity slowly at 85% and i allready see much better growth on some corals.
Do u suggest to buy another one kessil?
Here is a photo of my tank. Sorry about poor quality!
It would help you with some shadowing. I don't think you'd really "need" it, but it would help.
