you have to think of the angles. If the light has to travel downwards on a diagonal, any rock/corals placed high, will shield the light from reaching the edges of your tank. You'll end up with many more shaded areas than you'd think. I had 1 MH reflector on
this tank, and hated it. Once I switched to a 3 foot T5 fixture, I got much better coverage.
