I’m currently running x2 61” Aquaticlife t5 hybrid fixtures with 3 radion xr30w pro gen 3 upgraded to mobius

Over x2 96”x36”x10”

I’ve never been real satisfied with the light coverage of these fixtures over the 2 8ft runs

So I have been talking with Orphek about upgrading the lighting to there or3 led bars

They had suggested
90 blue plus x8 (36”)
90 uv x4 (36”)
O six controller x2

I’m looking for some advice for this lighting setup. What do you think the par would be? Would these cover the entire coral runs?

I was thinking of maybe going with the 120’s (48”) that way I have full coverage
