many choices out there if you remove the lid on the tank

i was looking at getting a radion xr15 pro but wanted to make sure that it would be a good long term solution and can cover if i want to do sps or higher par would this be a good fit

 
I like the nava reef leds by nicrew. Cheap and work well.
 
radion xr15 pro
they are great lights but way too overpriced. if you want to spend that much reefi uno is the way to go.
nava reef was a great suggestion but is more towards the blue spectrum. nicrew hyperreef is more of a white spectrum similar to ecotech blue vs pro
 
reefbreeders meridian is great as well just priced between the reefi uno and the nicrew. kessil is always a good pick as well. I would suggest trying to find what looks best to you aesthically inside and outside of the aquarium (like shimmer and mounting options)
 
I’ve had great luck with Steve’s LEDs.

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
