New lighting by Radion for tank

mcgallagherc · Jul 28, 2022

Planning on purchasing x2 radion G6 XR15s for tank. Its 48x24x24 and will be mixed reef with fish. No plans on SPS as of now. Still very new and have 2 older light bars across tank that switch from blue/white/off when I purchased my set up. Will I be happy with spending the money on these radions? Thanks

Yes, night and day.

Unless Mobius goes down again :face-with-tears-of-joy: I have radions and love them but did not like mobius at all when I tried it. Fortunaly mine are 4th gen so I switched back to ecosmart live which also permits changing settings from anywhere you have internet. I think mobius was a step backwards not forward but starting with gen 5 your forced to use it.

I think the 15's might be a little small. The 30's might be better for your tank

My tank was professionally set up. Everything was previously enjoyed and removed from one of his clients house. He will be by Friday with 2 xr15 Gen 6 blues with arm mounts to put on for me Friday. I appreciate everyone's response and opinions. This guy installed and cares for our tank at work and have known for 7+ years says these lights are more than sufficient for what I want so I'll take his advice. Just always like to hear other opinions. I'll attach pics of work tank!

Decided not to wait until Friday when he could come by and hook them up so I ran by his house today and grabbed the new lights. Within 30 mins of having up and running the few corals I have looked 10x better! Now to figure out this app and light scheduling
