Would 6 units be enough to cover that deep demension tank or do I need to go with 9 units? I have followed some ai users on rc and it seems that most of them if running a sps tank, they are using 9 to even 12 units for a sizable tank like mine. If this is the case then it might not be worth it for me even at 399 plus tax a unit.

sorry for derailing the thread.
Im not to sure, but I know you can change out the optics. Standard is 4 outside pods with 70 degree optics and the 4 inner pods are 40 degree optics. I know from my single ai sol unit that there is a lot more light directly under it which I could see leading to a "spotlight" effect if multiple units were used. When you order you can specify that you would like 70 degree optics all around and no additional cost. (pretty sure its no additional cost)
