Radion led lighting advise

[john2three]

Hi, I'm wanting to upgrade my led lighting. I have 3 foot red sea reefer 250 and looking at radion xr pro, do you think it would be better to run 2 x xr15s or 1 x xr30 has anyone had any experience with these? Thanks

I ran a single randion gen 2 xr30 non pro over a 36x18x17 and grew sps and lps no problem. If you want full coverage of equal par than I would go with 2 xr15 but you will be able to grow even on the edges of the light

more/smaller fixtures is better, in general

I'd go with 2 xr15's...you can always add a third down the road if you think you need more.

If you have the budget, go for the G4 Pros. I upgraded from the G3 Pros and was completely blown away after seeing the difference in coverage/coloration.

IMO you would be better off with the 2 XR15's over a 3' tank.

Another vote for 2 15's. Unless you want drop off on the edges of the tank for low par corals, you will get much better coverage with 2 lights. If budget allows, and you are thinking SPS focused tank, 2 XR30's wouldn't be out of the question.
