Is the optics/output of this any different than the K7 V3? I want to add a second NP light to my tank but I dont want to have to replace my few month only one.

Can I get around using the controller for the old lights, by buying a new app controlled light and using it as the master and the old lights as slaves?

I like this idea but I doubt it. I'm running K7 Pro II and K7 V3 and their programming is just different enough that the controller for the V3 - while it works technically - doesn't control it the same way it controls the V3. I'm guessing it would be the same even if there was a work around to make the app work.

What’s recommended for a 72x24x30Deep SPS dominated, clams etc? Is one per 24” enough?

@Gtinnel has 6 or 7 on his 72" tank but he has the intensity turned down because it's only 22" deep. It helps eliminate shadows. I have 2 plus a black box on my 125 but could definitely use at least 2 more. I'd definitely recommend at least 4 - possibly 5 with the deeper tank.

I do have 6 on my 6’ 125g tank and although I could’ve probably gotten away with less, I’m glad I didn’t. I partially went with that many because my tank has two braces that cause some pretty bad shadowing. If you don’t have any bracing in the way you shouldn’t need as many, but I would personally still use more than one every 2 feet.
I agree with @tbrown3589 and would go with 4 or 5.

I just opened the K7 v3 I purchased a few months ago and they are the non-wifi ones. If I add a third wifi will I be able to match the spectrum with the app or will you be able to tell they are different?

They are the same light just without the WiFi capabilities. Adding the third one - assuming you keep the percentages the same - shouldn't be noticeable. I have two of the older ones on my tank and a black box in the middle of both of them. There's a HUGE spectrum difference between the two lights but once it's in the tank it all blends fairly well.
