Ecotech XR 30 pros over this reef plus XR 15s and kessils

[acropora4u]

I am removing the Aquatic Life T5 fixture. I have three XR fifteens two XR 30s two kessil a 500x and 2 orphek light bars. How would you arrange them over this tank? Of course this picture is with the Aquatic Life t5 fixture still hanging and the XR 30s are not hung yet.

tank is 60 long x 36 wide x 24" deep peninsula.

Are you wanting to use every light? I see no need for that many lights over that tank personally.

I would run the 2 XR30s, 2 XR15s and 2 Orphek Bars.

XR30 on both ends, the 15s in the middle (mounted kind of close together to resemble an XR30) and then the Orphek bars on the outside. If you really want to put the Kessils in bewtween the Radions you could.

See my super high tech CAD drawing for an example: (not to scale)

Thanks my friend. It’s all high-end acropora so I need all the light. Thank you for the drawing. I think I’ll use it.

For high end acropora, I would keep the T5.

Add the Kessils in between the Radions and you’re set. Plenty of light for anything

No, T5’s gotta go, but thanks for your reply. It’s valuable.

That’s what I’m talking about

So are those high end acros.

You are correct that’s why I ain’t getting the stronger lights to grow them faster
