IM Nuvo 38 - 2 Kessil A160 or 1 A360?

[impreza]

Hi,

 

I have a IM Nuvo 38 that I just setup (dimensions are roughly 24" x 19"). I am looking at my lighting options and not sure what to do. I really like the Kessil lights but don't know if I should go with 2-A160's, or 1-A360?

 

Tank will be mostly softies, zoas, etc. Maybe a few easier SPS, but definitely wont be SPS dominated.

 

What are your thoughts?

Thank you!

If you don't want any shadows, I would say two 160's are all that you'll need. If shadows are not an issue or if you like to have lower light animals on the fringes, then a single 360we would fit the bill.

I have a 23 x 12 x 14 nano with two 160's and I'm only getting up to 66% during the peak and I have a sps dominated tank. Right now you can pick up 160's second hand for a good deal. I'm seeing 360's as well.

Just my two pennies.

Good luck!
