This threads needs a 2013 update!!! :bigsmile:

Have you got any SPS frags in the tank? If so, how is the SPS colour under the LED/T5 combo?

I was thinking of doing the exact same thing with my tank: use radion with a couple of T5's on either side.

First off... I'm having a boy! Due May 12th. We will name him Lucas Angelo Barsotti..

and now.. on to the fish fish fish
(i'm having a crazy cyano outbreak which fallowed the diatom bloom.. It'll all clear up, the tank is still really young.. only about 3 months old. ha)

AND.. i'm taking these pictures with my iphone 5 so give me a break. haha

As for the question about the lights, so far i'm very pleased with the radion and the growth i've been having but i will say that the single radion, in my opinion, wouldn't be enough to cover this whole tank. Supplementing with 4 T-5s seems to be the way to go.

blah blah blah pictures.

Taking top downs has never been so easy..
