2 XR30's or 2 XR15's

[ThatPhillyReefer]

I am setting up a 110g tank. I was wondering should I run 2 Xr30's or 2 Xr15's.
Tank Dimensions- 4ft L x 29" H x 18" W

What do you plan on growing?

^^Exactly, more than likely 2 xr30s wont even be enough, unless you're looking at mostly sofites and LPS with SPS up high

I would do 2 xr30. It’s a deep tank to start with. You can always dial them back to what ever you need.

I was thinking on running two radions and t5’s. I want a sps dominant tank. If need i would definitely run 3 xr15’s if needed

SPS and some lps and zoa

I think 3 xr15's with the T5 would be a good choice since going sps mainly, at least for acros. If your talking birdnest, montis, stylos, you would be fine with 2. Plan your scape out to have 250 to 350 par with parts that go higher as some sps like to be cooked but not all.

imo.. 2 xr30 for a deeper tank like yours. I have three xr15 g5 blues on my 6ft waterbox but its only 24~in deep. Mostly softies and lps, run them at 50% and getting great par for them throughout the tank.
