Lighting setup. Looking for a change

[USMA36]

This is my 1.5 year old 220 72x30x24. Currently I use 3 Radion XR30 g4 pros with diffusers tthey are suspended from an ecotech rail at about 9” above the water. I am thinking of rearranging some of the rock work to make the ends of the tank rock scape not as high into the water column which I’m hoping will be better for my lps. I am also debating turning the 3 xr30s so they run front to back and moving them to mainly cover the larger area between the 2 braces? Will that make the ends too dark? I’d like to avoid having the light picks directly over the brace as the water level in my tank is quite high and the braces are always covered with salt residue.

ever think to just add supplemental lighting? like a cheap aliexpress LED bar? you wont know for sure what you'll need to do until the rockwork is moved around as you mentioned, so perhaps planning ahead with buying the LED bar could help solve any lighting issues that could come up after you move rocks around.

The tank looks great. I like the idea mentioned above about supplemental lighting. Keep it simple, no drastic changes that could stress the corals
