I am thinking of switching out off Maxspect Razor and go with either 2x Radion Pro or one 48" Pacific Sun Pandora Hyperion T5+LED.

Please advise .
 
I had very good luck with my Pandora T5/LED.

Do they run hot ? Any con on the fixtures I should know ? Any incidents with some corals at all, bleach or brown ?
 
Well…the pandora has active fans to keep it cool…and they work pretty well. Much, much less heat than my 8 bulb ATI power module as well as my halide/T5 light…as to be expected. I acclimated my corals to the light slowly and had very good results. The only downside is it took me a bit to program it successfully. Once I figured it out…all was well. All that being said, Im currently back to T5/MH as I think, if cost is not an issue, its the best route for acros.

It gave me good color and growth. Red planet:

I have that exact color for red planet as well under Maxspect Razor. I cant seem to get it to go classic white red color like when it was under MH, so this must be because of LED.
