I'm planning the build of a 310g (96L x 30W x 25H) that will be mixed, but primarily SPS. The tank has two braces, so I've got 3 sections of approx 30x30 to light. Looking at the data on the BRS website, they say the Radion XR39 G5 has a recommended spread of 24x24. Given the 30x30 area I need to cover, 2 lights per section for 6 total? Is that going to be overkill where they overlap?
The other option I was looking at was the Atlantik V4 (gen2). They say the recommended spread is 40x24 for that. Assuming I let it be a little less covered at the two outside edges and the middle would have overlap, it would seem I could do 1 light per section for 3 total with these.
Anyone have a setup similar to either scenario and could comment on how it worked out?
