New Kessil A360X Over Red Sea 350

[bpseal]

Hey all, I just ordered 4 (may return 1) Kessil 360X's with the new spectral controller X. Is out of the box, stock profiles a solid overall layout for a mixed (SPS heavy though) solid enough or is there enough experience out there yet to determine this? I'll be doing a Red Sea 350 build thread with the 360's and also hard plum, apex, etc etc. Glad to be back in the hobby after being out a year...

Glad your back. Let's see what others say.

Just based on the par numbers from the BRS video, I think you would be limited in SPS placement with just 3 units. You could lower the lights some, but I'd personally opt for 4 units or add in some T5s on each side for best coverage.

See 17+ minute mark on the BRS video.

Agree... I do believe he said the 3 would work but 4 would be preferable to get the higher end of the 350 PAR range. I'll prob think about it and add later if need be. I'm torn though because i don't want to mess with it in two months when the cycle is complete
