I can show you a pic of a similar one it's a little smaller. It's a single very high wattage led panel. You can run them closer to the water with no optics if you wanted and the spread would be better

This is similar. You can even use these and it will work out. 4-5 along your tank would work perfect

You would need a driver capable of pushing the amperage and voltage it needs, constant current, a power supply and a reliable heatsync. From what o2surplus lent me the Nuventix synjet heatsync and cooler goes well with the panel. If he's up for it he can make a driver for you. And you can also hook up arduino or a led controller. I tested a single lower watt led over my 24x24x20 and it lights up well. And I put it 20" over the tank edge. Worth a try and remember you can always dim or raise the power if you need to

so that all still has to be soldered and all of that good stuff. I'm not interested in doing any of that. Just too much work right now.
