Maxwell, Your tank looks awesome!

I noticed you have your 2 Atlantik's mounted close together. Are they far enough apart that the antenna is still on the right side of the left fixture? Or did you relocate the antenna? I installed 2 Atlantik's on my 72"125g a few days ago and have decided to add a 3rd. they will be up against each other, so I will have to move the antenna's on the center and left fixtures.

I have 2 x V3's side by side on DD rails and a V4 (converted to V4 spectrum) on the back , cant you just put the V4 side by side with the Antenna at each end , you will need more than 2 on a 72'' tank in my opinion. I have 3 x Orphek , a radion g3pro and a reef bar.

That should have been a V4 converted to a V3 spectrum

Bill,

If I can turn things around in the fixture so that the antenna can be on the left with the power cord still in the back, that will be the play. I emailed Orphek last night and the suggested the same thing. They also said if I am close enough to the gateway I may be able to put the antenna inside the fixture. I think I am going to try that for the middle fixture. With that combo I will be able to keep the fixtures butted together and not have them overhang on the sides of the tank. Thanks for the advice. Sorry to hijack your build thread.
