I have the 8-bulb fixture and my tank is 23 inches deep. The light hangs 14 inches above the tank and I'm growing SPS on the ground. Hope that helps.

i am looking at getting a 60x24x38T tank and wondering if i am going to be able to use my 10-bulb PM. I would ofcourse grow SPS towards the top, softies on bottom and LSP in the middle. 2 tall islands...

I think if you place everything the way you say you should be ok. These fixtures are extremely good. I have a sunpower 10" above the water surface and the height of the tank is 17" and everything grows great including in the bottom. Good luck.
