Hello guys. Has anyone come across a color combo or setting of some sort that mimics what T5s have to offer? I do not have much experience with toying with the color intensities but I assume it could be possible to at least get similar results. I've been using the preset schedules for the past 4 months and want to see what else my light can do. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I ran the gen 3 radions for a short period of time. I couldn't find what you're looking for, so I supplemented my lighting with two retrofitted T5's. On a 6' tank, I ran 3 radions horizontaly, and I found that the T5's filled in all the shadows nicely. It also helped tremendously in a short amount of time with SPS growth.
