Lighting Waterbox 7226

[Peach02]

So I'm thinking of setting up a waterbox 7226 and would like to keep a mixed reef with sps up high and lps / softies lower. So far Ive thought of a few main options. (for those that don't know the tank is 6' 2' 2). I am hoping to hang the light fixture however I may need to use a bar / mount)

Option 1. Aquatic life t5 led hybrid with 4x hydra 36

Option 2. Aquatic life t5 led hybrid with 4x radion xr15 or xr15 pro

Option 3. 4x hydra 36 with diffuser

Option 4. 4x radion xr15 or xr15 pro with diffuser

Option 5. ATI sun power

My vote would be for option #1. I just wish the aquatic life fixtures had better mounting options.

That and the cables are badly managed

1, 2 or 5. but maybe I'm biased towards T5.

You will have extra work with the Aquatic life hybrid dealing with cables on both ends of the fixture. For that reason I would use just ATI T5 or if you are set on hybrid, look at the Geisemann Stellar.

Personally I chose the ATI Powermodule hybrid for my WB 7226. You should consider it also. If you are already considering 4x Radions +T5, your are in the same price range.
