suspending lights

[YE||0W TA|\|G]

Im going to be suspending my aqualight pro from the ceiling.

How far should it be from the surface of the water?

I have my BULBs about 9 inches above the water surface. I am running 14ks If that matters.

The closer the better. However heat might come into play and force you to raise it some.

my aqualight pro has 3x 250w 14,000k

if that matters

Depends on a number of factors, including coral response to the lighting, but in general from 6-12" is common. Will you have the ability to adjust it once it's in place?
