My old tanks were a 220 mostly softies, and a 125 that was SPS dominated. The lighting was Coralife 150 plus atinics fixtures.
The picture is of my 125 just before I took it down to make room for the 500 gallon. The reason I attached the old picture is so you can see how most of the SPS looked before Radions.
Not all corals are in current tank.

I added corals to the 500 around the end of December 2011. I had great color and growth under Radions. In June 2012 I had to take the tank down to have the front and left side glass panels replaced.
FTS of tank the day I took it down early June 2012

Also, the glass had visual defects. All fish and coral lived in a 300 gallon Rubbermaid tub for 3 months in my garage, which was not the best situation.

Mid-September 2012 the tank was back up with corals .
