I would say you are probably looking for a xr30 for every 2ft you have.

You could look into the hydras or neptune skys, but I think for your needs the xr30s would be your best option.

What are the tank's dimensions?
XR15s or 30s?

200g isn't a size, but a volume

If you're interested in Radion G6, I highly recommend you to look at the new ReeFi Uno 2.0 Pro, it provides a slightly wider spectrum at higher wattage and with more spreading options, also you'd save quite a few bucks.

T5 hybrid imo

Maybe 2 15 and a 30 in the middle
It’s 60in x 24in x 24in

I'm using 4 of the 1st Gen Uno (180W) on a 206g 6ft, mixed reef, SPS dominated tank, though I would've put 5 if my budget allowed me to.

I also have the 2nd gen Uno (270W) waiting for me to setup my new 4ft frag tank.

Note that the 1st gen Uno is more to the purplish side of the spectrum, while the 2nd gen leans towards the bluish spectrum (in fact it overlaps G6 and adds more near-UV to the table, at higher wattage).

As for how much - if you're a stick head I would go with 3 Uno 2.0 Pros, although 2 would also be enough.

Holy **** I never would of thought thanks for the info!!! How long have u had them for ?

Hehe yeah they're pretty dang good
I've been using the 1st gen for close to 2 years now and I'm very satisfied with the results.

They also come with 3 year warranty and include a hanging kit, which is a big bonus.
The 2nd generation also comes with 3 built in spreading options and another 1 that can be purchased separately:
1. 60 degree Reeflectors (Purchased separately)
2. 90 degrees Reeflectors (built in)
3. 120 degrees Reeflectors (built in)
4. 160 degreed (no Reeflectors)

I really can't recommend them enough.
I probably can't link it here because its over a competitive forum, but I recommend you to look for telegraham's reviews of the Duo and 1st gen Uno as well as his first impression of the 2nd gen Uno.
