nice, lots of real estate to work with! Those lights look mounted quite low, that's gonna be a lot of PAR.

They are unfortunately very low, limited by surrounding environment.

Being very new to anything other than a "standard" bulb for freshwater. I haven't even researched light levels.

if you're worried about light spillage, you could look into adding shrouds/barn doors to the fixtures. I did this on my refugium, works like a charm: https://amzn.to/3QwNVCh

I'll probably be worried aboutl ight spillage in the sump refugium section, when i get that finished. I just cannot make the display lights any higher.
