Ryan...respectively, having run 3 XR30 Gen4 Pro's over a 4' wide tank is plenty enough. Bit of a trade off in the beginning....spend a bit more in lights but then you don't have to drive the lights very hard. (driving lights at a lower level = longer life...much longer life).

At the end of the day, its also about PAR and what your are trying to achieve. I am confident that the 3 lights in my tank, if turned up all the way...would easily bleach and kill everything in the tank. :-(

IMHO..though
