I will be ordering my Reefer 350 at the end of the month and I would really like to order a ClearView lid ahead of time. I'm planning on getting 2 of the Red Sea ReefLED 90s. I'm trying to figure out how far apart I should have them mounted on the tank so I can get the lid cutouts in the correct spots. Any guidance would be appreciated.
 
I would recommend waiting until you have everything set up and take your own measurements, I personally wouldn’t rely on someone giving me light placement advice or providing accurate measurements for the cut outs on a custom made top.

That's a good point. I was hoping to get it ordered before because of the wait time. I emailed RedSea today and they said to mount the ReefLed 90s 1ft away from each edge and 2ft from each other. They don't have a finalized mounting arm as of now so they couldn't give me dimensions on those.

Just set the tank up and take your measurements. By the time it cycles and you QT some fish you’ll be in that 3-6 week timeline anyway.
You may want to have a few extra cord recess cuts made for future use too, just in case you end up moving powerhead around.

Extra cord cut outs is a good idea. I have 2 Mp40s but that could change down the road.
