May I ask what is the irradiation area of Kessil A500x?Can it be used on square fish tanks ranging from 30'' to 36''?
My English level is not very good, everyone try to understand...

I want to raise sps, but I'm not sure if it's enough. Do I need a fill light.

Mmm, thank you. I have seen their information, but I am still unsure if they can cover the sps

First welcome to the forum. Yes the 500x will work for growing sps. My brother had two on his 60x24 waterbox. He only ran the lights at 25%. As the par level was to high above that range. So my thought is that they will work fine on a larger tank.

首先欢迎来到论坛。是的，500x将为不断增长的sps工作。我哥哥的60x24水箱上有两盏灯，他只开了25%的灯，因为标准杆水平太高了。所以我的想法是他们会在一个更大的

Thanks for your reply, I am going to get a 30 to 32 inch square tank to keep sps

If keeping acropora, you'll need a couple cover that area. They are point source lights, so there will be shading/shadows, contrast, etc...Personally, I like contrast and some shaded areas, but you may want some fill light from LED bars or something similar.

如果保持acropora，你将需要一对夫妇覆盖该地区。它们是点光源，所以会有阴影/阴影，对比度，等等...个人，我喜欢对比度和一些阴影区域，但你可能需要一些填充光从LED条或类似的东西。

谢谢你的建议。因为是方形水箱，我还是想用一个500x，两个不知道怎么布置灯具。其他人准备使用led灯条，所以我不知道是否可以提高sps。
