Would this be enough light??

[Straight.Reefin]

I have a 6foot long x 2 foot wide x 29 tall tank

Sps are mainly middle and top of tank

I know radions are good enough for sure but I’m curious how many I would need?

I was thinking of 3 gen 4 pros? One light per 24 by 24 area?? Any thoughts/ advice? Would I get shading?

3-X 30 pros would work well. as for shading -get the diffusers and you should be good to go.

3 of the radion Gen 4 XR30's pros should work well, given sps are middle to top. Shading may not be an issue now, but as colonies get bigger and more mature or if you have some plating type SPS up top, it may become an issue.

Even with the new diffusers on it?

I honestly can't say as I have never used the diffusers (as I have T5's complementing my LED's). I think the diffusers are a great idea anyway, as I think it will help reduce the disco ball shimmer of the radions. I wouldn't worry about shadowing at this point. If you grow a big plating montipora at the top of your tank and it starts shading corals down below, or you have a nice large branching acropora that the inner braches don't seem to be getting light into them, then consider yourself fortunate and address the issue at that time
