I'm getting ready to set up my first saltwater aquarium by turning my 125 gallon cichlid tank into a reef tank. I really like the Kessil pendent lights, but i'm wondering how to get 3 of them on my 6' tank considering there is a nice black center brace in the very center of the tank. Does anyone have any experience with this? Can I just do one a little off center and then turn the lone light on the other side up a little bit to compensate for this?
 
I considered this before also and my thoughts were to make a new brace out of thin aluminum rods on each side ( say 6-10 inces apart) of the center brace, and using some aluminum L-brackets attaching them to to front and rear brace at the top of the tank.
