ive been using a a360W over my tank for about a year. im using a single unit on a 70gallon tall cube. the sandbed is like 31 inches from the light and i am seeing some pretty good growth in my acans and favias down there. im also seeing some nice growth on my hammer corals a few inches higher, and up near the top of my tank my montiporas have grown really well. i actually just added new corals and reacclimated my light and it started burning the monti's at the top so i have to go back down and ramp up to what they were at before even slower than i expected. these things can really sizzle!

Running x2 a360w on a 120. Have a hammer 24" deep on the sand bed doing fine. Some birdsnest sps about 6" deep doing great and my Zoas are loving it on the sand bed.

Just got a discounted frogspawn that I'm trying to revive so far so good.

They are excellent with the programmable unit attachment as well

I am thinking about the 360 Kessils as well. A couple of questions:

1- I know they hook up to an Apex controller but can you really program them like say a Radion?
2- What is the difference between the 360 WE and the 360 NE? (I am assuming the angle of the lenses but want to make sure)
3- What color is better, Tuna Blue or Tuna Sun?

I am building my dream tank and will need a couple of these (if I go with them) Tank is small at 36x30x24 and was going to place 4 of them in a square hanging frame. I want this tank to be SPS dominate.

you need the blue varies from 10k to actinic and narrow for very deep tanks, no can't do radions functions but most are the ones they can't do seems like nonsense ones anyways besides moon lighting all the important functions ramp up down intensity and spectrum they can do

Thanks for the info. Do you need a separate module for the Apex to run these? I know there are separate modules you need to buy for AI lights and for Ecotech lights.
