So I exchanged the A350 narrow I had for another A350w. I had the LFS store that I got them from to order another wide for me but they let me use the narrow until it arrived at the store. It finally arrived yesterday so since I was switching the one fixture out I thought I would snap some pics of how much coverage these wide fixtures have. The wides run 90w with a dense matrix led and a 70 degree lense.

FTS with both of them on. Not to much different from the first pics I posted but if you notice the left side of the tank there is a lot more light. Before the light was 4-5 inches below the rim before it hit the back of the tank, now it hits the top rim. I love having such a larger spread now especially for the coral I have on the center island. Everything looked happy before but I think everything looks better with the new light not being so focused.
Also snapped some pics of the fish:
purple tang
scopas tang
copperband butterfly (love, love, love this fish!!!!)
Picasso clowns female on the left, male on the right
melanarus wrasse gorgeous fish with great coloration just hard to get a descent pic
algae blenny on one of his favorite perches
belly full of eggs, actually they both are carrying eggs right now
corals:
acros still needing a permanent home in the display
ju ju eyes for The Blue Glow
fire digitata this one may not look that special but if you can find the sweet spot in your tank the white skeleton actually turns green which looks amazing with the bright orange polyps. you cant tell from the photo but some of the branches at the top are turning green.
screaming comet chalice picked this frag up at the lansing swap in 2012 and a month after I got it it somehow rolled into a lobo I had at the time and when I woke up the next morning all of the flesh melted away except for a tiny little strip. so I moved it into a low light and low flow area and here it is a year later and its just getting bigger
I love there coloration and there size.
