90 Gallon Lighting Question

[kylecaldwell]

Hey all,

Need a lighting opinion. I have a nice, new 90 gallon tank with dimensions of 36x24x24 and I am trying to decide on my lighting. The size is what is giving me fits. I will be using pendants and cannot decide between a single 400w or a 2x250w. Any ideas?

I have a 90 gal reef ready and unless your center brace is glass. I would definatly go w/2x250..!!!Why penndant's if u don't mind me asking?

I'm using pendants simply for looks. The entire system is being set up to look like a Baja taco stand and a hood just won't work for me. Should end up with alot cooler tank in the summer as well.

The tank is 3/8" acrylic with euro bracing.

Pendants rule. I'd go with 2 250s.
