AI hydras for 60" tank.

[LINCOLNZ34]

I have a 60x24x18 (120 gal) mixed reef currently using 6-60"t-5's w/ icecap ballasts. Im wanting to order AI Hydra led's for it. Problem that im coming up with is the canopy will only allow 8" from lens to water so im not sure if two will light up the whole tank? I was thinking three but i have the ugly black brace!(shadowing?) Go with four??? Someone please help!! Am I going in the wrong direction or am I overthinking this!?

i would think 3 should be fine. i dont think the brace will be a major problem because the angle of light coming from both sides of the brace should overlap under the brace. hope that makes sense.
