Radion XR 15 Blue vs XR 15 Pro

As title says, which would be best for a LPS and SPS dominant mixed reef tank?

 

[Mr. Wiggles]

It depends on the color spectrum you prefer. If you like a blue look, go blue. If you like a blue look but go pro, you’ll be using fewer of the diodes and get less par. If you like a whiter look, then pro is for you. Fwiw I have some pros and think they’re great, but I run them at probably a 17k look.

Thanks!

Sure thing!

Treasure Corals and Reef Builders both have great videos showing them off. Get some popcorn and give them a watch before laying down the money.

The G6 Blue seems to be better than the G5 Blue.

I opted for the G6 Pros because I have the AI Blade Glows to add in more blue and violet

I didn't really like my G6 Blues until I cranked the intensity, but I'm also not playing around with light schedules besides the AB+ preset. If I had to do it again, I'd probably do XR30 but whether Pro or Blue, man still on the fence!
