well what it is worth a ran a 400 w 6500k on my 280 and with a center brace and it didnt effect it what so ever.
you can try and add a 1 on each sde of the tank and break off the center brace if ya want too.
I going to be running 1x250 over my 36" tank 36x20x20 and if i can will have no brace ,but probably run in to putting a brace at each corner out around 6" out from the sides or 8" out.
