Long story short, had a 300XL that split.

RS replaced and guy at LFS wanted a 3' tank, so RS sent me an entire G2 setup, ended up selling the new setup to him. Bought a 525XL G2+. Have 3 XR15's. Want to do sticks, but conflicted about which way to go with lighting as XR15's aren't enough.

Do you think adding 2 AI Blades would give me the PAR I need around 7-8" into the tank?

What other option should I consider? All new lighting? I feel like the Blade's are the best way to spend my money, but maybe not the best solution.. If that makes sense.

Let par readings dictate your decisions rather than speculation.

I think this has been answered to the fullest extent with the information you have provided here.
