3 would get ya by… you could get more bang for your buck with reefi uno pros and run 4 for better coverage.. as for pros vs blues.. blues have higher par numbers but also look more blue compared to the white lighting of pros… it all depends on what you’re keeping and how you like your lighting.

I went ahead and ordered the Reefi uno 2.0 pros I had never even heard of them but I did some research and pulled the trigger thanks

You’re gonna love them! If I didn’t waste money on radions I would prolly still be led if I got the uno pros.. my buddy got them and I was blown away by his tank and par readings over a radion! I went home and sold my radions and went back to halides haha!
