Oprhek iCon Layout

[NoviReefGuy]

the tank dimensions are 120 x 42 x 36 ; looking to do a mixed reef.. Thinking Orphek iCON's , what do you think of layout(s) ...

Thanks for your insights...

Mixed reef option 2, although option 1 is better overall IMO

my tank is 33 wide

beautiful tank! how do you have them mounted ( 80/20?)

15 series 8020, parts are in my build thread somewhere

also see @rsumner build thread

also keep in mind the proper mounting height for ICON’s, I would at an absolute minimum mount them at 14”, better at 16-18” over the water

Option 2 is plenty for mixed reef....I have v4's and running front to back on 39" is plenty, you may get away with 6 and place 2 between each glass brace??
