Building new, 60x36x24 rimless

Been out of the hobby for about 2 years due to a serious move. I've come up with 60x36x24, anyone else with these dimensions?

Mines 60x36x27tall
The 3' front to back makes lighting kinda a pain since average coverage seems to be in 2' increments.
I have 2 of the 48" controllable ever grow LED fixtures over it and I get even coverage.
The smaller high end LED or MH would be quite high off the water and T5s would need 2 fixtures probably to get rid of shadows

I think almost any dimension can work. There are so many different corals with different lighting needs to occupy any area of the tank. I had a 100 gal bowfront corner tank. The back corner had Frogspawn that were very happy under to lower lighting level.
