Reefbreeders + Kessil?

Hi Everyone! Looking for some advice on LED's. I have a 90 gallon corner bowfront and am currently running a 24" photon v1. Because of the "triangle" shape of the tank I'm thinking of running the reefbreeders down the middle from front to back and then adding kessils on either side. I'm not very familiar with kessils but have heard great things and decided to move forward with them given their size/coverage.

My question is: which kessils would you recommend that would fill in the gaps in my tank and blend nicely with my reefbreeders? Thanks for your time and I appreciate the help. Here's a pic of the tank before I had to relandscape this morning when my new RBTA got blown to the back of the tank

I use the 160's but my tank is quite shallow and does need the added punch the 360's offer. I'm guessing your tank is more than 24" tall? If your just looking to brighten the tank I'd go with the 160's but if you have a heavy sps population planned in the future id say to use the 360's.
