What to consider when buying LED's

Just throwing my suggestion out there. If my spouse gave me the green light to spend on LEDs (as in more than the Chinese LEDs I currently use), I'd personally get 2 x Kessil a360we units, and 2 x BuildmyLED multichannel 20k XB strips for a 4 foot tank (75, 90, or 120 gallons). On my 90 gallon I personally use one BuildmyLED super actinic strip and 2 x Ocean Revive S026 panels. All mounted inside a canopy
 
Slief - thanks so much for the pictures!! Definitely helps me picture how I could do that in my hood. Did you have a particular retailer that you purchased from?

These mounts drop the Kessils about 3" so as Moondoggy mentioned, canopy height could be an issue. These mounts allow you to aim the Kessils in any direction so it does allow for some flexibility to have them further apart and angled inward towards eachother if you needed run more than one or in the case of one, you could place it closer to the front and angle it towards the back a bit.
