Well, I'll throw hydra out there since i just got a 26hd

Btw-I'm doing sps dominated 17g tank (24x12x14)

It's only been running 2 days and I like it a lot so far. Seeing some color peeking out in some corals that had lost all color under kessils.

Both the Radion and Hydra are quality fixtures.

As far as PAR goes they are on the weak side for a 30" deep Tank. I like to see around 200 PAR on the sand bed.

As far as the yellow thats a wasted space on the LED Board. The Cree Whites have plenty of the 500-600nm range in them. By varying the intensity of Warm White and Cool White you can tweak the looks quite well without adding an extra tertiary colour.

When it comes to looks we went a different route and incorporated RGB clusters. This allows for any colour combination to be added to the primary Grow LEDs

Will post more when these are ready for release in December. Initial PAR measurements were twice while consuming less watts.

If I'm just answering the op question, Radion, but I'd go XR30.
Even though I run Radions and love them I'd also like to throw out the Orphek V3 compact. I think it would fit this tank very well.
