Default 1 more lighting thread with some questions

So I need some opinions.
On my 90g mainly sps now tank(48x18x24) I have 2 Iwasaki's mounted aprox 12" above the water surface.

Can any of you see any benifits to adding a 175 w 10000k bulb inbetween the existing iwasaki's?

My other thought is because of the crossover of light across the tank would the corals in the center or middle 36"(aprox) be the only ones to benefit from the added light?
What I mean by this is if one of my halides is on and the other is off the light crosses over more than half the distance of the tank.

Any thoughts on this??
Thanks All
