Running kessil 360we atm 2 of them but over kill in my opinion for what this tank is requiring

Looking to do t5 with led supplement. Question is 24" or 36" fixture and 6 bulb or 4?
 
Sorry it's a innovative marine 30l dimensions are 36x9x12 it has a akin one so I'm trying to avoid light falling into the back chambers as well
 
Planning on a ati sun power with 2 blue + and coral +. Is the dimmable one worth it?
Also being the tank is 36" wide which light to go with 24" or 36". I'm new to t5 have been running leds for years now. So this is a whole new step for me
 
The 24" if placed high enough will work but will give less par. Id say for 36" leave them 4-6 off the surface of the water and you'll be able to grow anything you want.
 
Thanks for the input. I'll be leaning towards the ati 4 bulb 36". Just have to sell these kessil 360we now.

I see your from jersey where do you do your shopping? I used to be from jersey
 
I jump the Bristol bridge and go to either the Hidden Reef or the Fish Factory. Fish Factory for my ATI bulbs, corals and fish. Salt mix and supplies I get from the Hidden Reef. Where in jersey did you live?
 
I wouldnt even consider the 24" for a 36" tank, you will never forgive yourself.....Get the 36" ATI. Dimmable if you wan swing the extra cost. I love mine.
