He everyone! I'm planning out a 60 gallon cube (24"x24"x24") build and wanted to get some regarding the lighting. I really love the look of Kessil shimmer, so I've made up my mind that I want to go with a Kessil. The tank itself will be a mixed reef with some SPS and maybe a clam down the line. I've been trying to decide between the A360X or the A500X. The initial feedback I've been given has suggested that the 360 will definitely need supplemental lighting a la LED bar to increase PAR and achieve more even fill lighting. Would I need the same LED bar setup for the 500? I'm assuming it won't be so much to increase PAR as it will be evening out the point source. I don't have any strong opinions on mounting height, but would prefer a cleaner look as the lighting will be exposed.
As for supplemental LED bars, any favorites between Reef Brites, Quanta Pros, or AI Blades?
Thanks for your help in advance.
