I ran 4 par38's from Paul @ oceanic Corals over a 6 foot reef for awhile and was generally pleased with them illumination wise. Only problem was the coral growth butter zone was fairly small so all my corals were grouped in clusters under each light. On a fowlr it would be fine. Look for a wide optic (60 or 80 degrees) to minimize shadows or just hang them higher.

I have not personally used them but would think that the spread might be alittle streched for 1 every 2 ft. A member on here was running some par 38 over his nano sps awhile back, imisky Eugene might have more personal experience over spread. Also mounting them higher up may blind the other members of your house and I guess if you were to space them a few ft apart it would most definately have some dark areas inbetween.
You may want look into running a cheaper led fixture for the fowler, btw what is the length and width of the tank these led will be put on?

My entire 400 is very well lit with only a few T5s on (dusk/dawn). Still low heat... no shimmer though. You're dead-set on LED?
