About ready to pull the trigger on a 84x26x20 peninsula tank and looking into lighting options for a primarily SPS dominant tank. Currently running 5x Hydra 32 over a Red Sea Max 650.

What do you guys think about running 8 of them over the new tank? Spread per light is 24x24 (not sure of the expected orientation) but I was thinking running them in twos longwise at four points across the tank. I assume there would be heavy overlap down the middle of the tank.
 
I don't see any problem with this (I've used them) - I might suggest using the new Radion G530's - which provide high light with great spread and you would probably be able to use fewer.
