In this picture, the light isn't completely ideal. I had to mount it a bit to the right so the dimmest point will be at the upper left, the crossbrace is causing a shadow down the middle, and the return locline is blocking the torch to the right. The light is mounted 9" from the top of the tank.
In a 29 gallon, I'm sure you could keep SPS anywhere if it was mounted at the same height.

Hope that helps.
Thanks for the picture, it helps a lot! The outer edges of the tank look very well lit. Did you get the Vega color? How do you like your unit?
