Default Evergrows ???

I'm in the process of ordering a tank from Concept. Thinking to get some evergrow leds . I'm already over budget on tank so that's why I'm think'in evergrows.
Have Chinese leds now but they're very bright & can't control light %. They do ramp up & down but everything is preset & not quite happy with them .
My tank being built is 72"x30" , think'in to get 2 it2060 & supliment with t5.


Please give me some input . Remember budget minded !

Thanks Mark

Thinking I might need the it2080 (32") x2 . To cover the 72" length . As well as the it2080 has 99leds compared to it2060 has 51leds . I want to keep a mixed reef but trying for mostly sps. I was going to supliment with a couple 4' t5's , just because of 30" width.
Thinking the it2060 might not be bright enough ?
Thoughts ???

I am presently running two 2080 on a 72" 180 gallon. I have a mixed reef with SPS and LPS and a mixture of zoas. I like the lights, I have good growth and colour in my corals.

Rest In Peace
I ran a 2080 over my 3ft 50g. It was almost perfect, so yes, two over a 6ft. would be good.

2 x 32" will give you 100% coverage but like I said it's not necessary unless you are going SPS wall to wall and more importantly, if budget allows.

I have 2x 24" custom led layout Evergrows and I love them. The only thing I don't like is that you cannot sync them and the timers wander
