I'm looking for some LEDs for a 10 ft freshwater (large CA/SA cichlids) tank. I've been using AI Prime 16 fixtures, which are ok, but I need a little more intensity for visual appeal only (there are no plants or obviously corals in the tank). I want lots of control over color, good shimmer and an easy method of controlling the lighting schedule and color.
The AI Primes are pretty good, so I was thinking of just upgrading to the Hydras for double the number of pucks. But then I was thinking maybe I should try the Ecotech Radions instead. I've had Kessils before, and LOVE the shimmer, but HATE the color of the Tuna Sun lights. The light is green and disgusting to my eyes.
So I guess my question is, how do the Hydra and Radion compare in terms of color control, shimmer and programability. I do have a couple of Vortech pumps in the tank, and I believe you can control the Vortechs and Radions via the web, which is definitely appealing.
Thoughts?
