I'm picking up the RSR 170 soon and am wondering about what LED lights to put on it. I plan to have a mixed tank with SPS probably on in the top 1/3 or the tank.

Would you recommend the xr15w g4 Pro or would the xr30 be a better option?
 
The XR15 has a spread of 24x24 so you can use it as that fits the 170 but you would be better off with the XR30 if you want more demanding higher light sps or 2 XR15 for better coverage of the whole tank

Thanks, I think I agree with the xr30
