Red Sea Reefer 750xxl/Kessil Ap9X

[Tango Tangy]

I am getting a Red Sea Reefer 750 xxl and I am curious if I should get three of the AP9X Kessil lights or if two would suffice in a mixed reef?
Tank is 71”x24”x24”. F

I was curious how you made out on your decision. I have a 180 gallon tank with dimensions that are close to yours and am trying to make a decision on lighting.

I put two Kessils in and I used a par meter to measure the par within the tank. I’m am getting good readings at 100% intensity throughout the tank. I can send you more info on placement as far as measurements go once I get home from vacation!

Why are you looking at R2R while you are on vacation? R2R is for when you are at work

Haha, gotta help the fellow reefer!!

That would be great - no rush though, enjoy your vacation!

I have an XXL 750 and I would go with three of them

How are these working out? I have a 72x24x30. I have support braces...so essentially 3 24x24x30 cubes. I know messily says a 360 will work, but BRS suggested 2 or one ap9x. With the sales this week looking to pull the trigger. Any feedback is appreciated.
