4 AI's with 3 at the very minimum on a 4 ft 120g and 6 AI's or 5 at the very minimum on a 6ft 180g?

I have 2 AI fixtures on a 3' long tank that is 2' wide and have no dim areas at all. The lights are a foot above the water line and my neglected SPS pieces started to color back up and recover bare skeleton parts after 2 weeks. Intensity is at 40% for white and 50% for blues. I definetly would not buy a third fixture.

I guess I should add that my tank is only 20" deep with a 1" sandbed as I'm not a fan of tall tanks.

with your 3 foot tank is your spacing 4 inches from each end and 4 inches from each other or do you have them the other direction? as with a whole other foot added that would double to 8 inches from each end and eachother with them parallel to each other.

Also checking into Modular LED set up as well so fingers crossed on that too. In Doch post the recommendation are for 2 with them 12 inches above the water, I will start with that after I hear from Modular LED, and increase lights if/when necessary. But having 4 would be sweet that way they wouldnt be parallel and i could have any coral anywhere which is what I really want, no one wants restrictions on their tanks.

My lights are the other way with 8" from the sides of the tank and 8" in between fixtures. I agree that if you go this route to try fewer fixtures and see if you want more or not. Modular is nice to as you can space the LEDs out to your own personal preferance and aren't limited to what a manufacturer gives you.
