You should be good with 6. My tanks 57" long, rounds out at the front 29" and is 25" deep. There's SPS, LPS, zoas, a clam anemone and all doing great. You'd be better off supplementing with purple or pink T5s to bring out your reds. I like mine but this algae thing is my only complaint and i'm positive it's due to a setting that I have yet to figure out.

my 230 has them mounted 12 inches off the water, and is an additional 30 inches to the bottom, with 24 inches wide.... I have 5 units with a fully stocked SPS tank, and no spot light effect at all....
