Maxspect R420R lights from Coralvue

Hi All,
I know these lights haven't been released yet so no one has them, but I was wondering for those of you with a lot more knowledge about lighting than me can take a look at the spec and give me an opinion on how many I would need. Tank is going to be 125g 72X24X17deep. It will be a mixed reef with mainly LPS, softies and possibly some Zoas. I did contact coralvue and they told me 4-5. I'm thinking I wouldn't need that many.

Thank You!

3 tops. 3 of those units lengthwise would be 72 inches, and should cover 24" of width.

4-5 running front to back would be overkill IMO.

Thanks, I didn't think I would need more than 3.

Those look nice. When are they due out and have they mentioned the cost?

I think in a few weeks. You can pre-order at Marine Depot for $490

Spread will totally depend on the optics on the lens. I have yet to find out what this is. If like the Mazarra, it will come with multiple choices. It really depends on what they iinclude.
