Hi all,
My tank is 2 years old - I feel like I'm now moving out of the "novice" phase and am looking to push harder into LPS and then SPS. (As you can see I can grow softies like crazy lol!) Lighting is what I'm focusing on now. I'm looking to get my PAR levels up to ~200 mid-tank; ~100 at the sandbed and close to 300+ near the top. So I think it's time to add some lights.
Attached is a picture of my tank with current PAR levels and distances. (the picture is slightly overexposed, so don't mistake the brightness for the lighting)
The three Kessil A360s ramp up in brightness to 90% as their peak level.
There are so many routes to go I don't know which path would be best long term.
Thanks in advance for your help!

- Do I just add a 4th Kessil?
- Do I replace just the middle Kessil with a big unit like the Mitras/Radion/Hydra/AP9x?
- Do I replace all three with two of the aforementioned big LED units?
- Something else?
Thanks in advance for your help!
