Marko had a thread awhile back showing his 3 Sol's over his 180g and it looked good. I have a 36"x24" tank and have 2 Sol's over it as a single unit of either the Sol's or Radions wouldn't cover the area to my liking. I wanted lots of intensity over the entire square footage of the tank with no dim areas on the edges. My height is 12" above the water line and going through a glass top and run at 60%W, 70%RB & 70%B. It took me about 3 months to build up to this level (I used the amount of algae it produced on the glass to know when to increase the level) and haven't seen any need to go any higher. Corals all seem happy and the tank is very bright and pleasing to my eyes.
