Radion With Kessil?

[Been Caught Reefin]

Anyone use a combination of Radion and Kessil? I have a 4’ tank and do not mind using multiple apps to program lighting, so really think 2 XR15 Pros with 1 Kessil a360x in the middle for shimmer would be a great look. Anyone do this? Thoughts? Enough for mainly SPS with a 48x24x20?

I used two Kessils 160s and four Radions 15s in the previous build. Now I have two Kessils 360s and four Radions 15s in the new system.

So it’s a good mix? Seems like it would be awesome. How is it programming them?

I love this combination and so do the corals. Radions has an AB+ program. I customize Kessils to my visual preferences. And with the help of the parameter I adjust the intensity

How do you have them mounted?

I have a friend in Ohio currently building a 300 Gallon, and he is using the A360x alongside the XR30 all mounted on the RMS rail.. He wanted them all to mount on the same height, and had asked me to design and printed a mount for the A360x to go on the RSM rail.

Its a great setup depending on your aquascape. hope the pictures help.

I have the same exact tank dimensions, and I'm using 3 x XR15 units. I.n currently running them at 46% intensity. I had them higher at first, but ended bleaching some of my green slimmer.

I currently have 2x XR30's and 2x 500X's on my 60" 150.

So far loving the combo with t5's. I have them mounted in a Aquaticlife t5 hybrid.

160WE for shimmer.I’d really like the combo and the best of 3 world.

That is exactly what I’m think about doing! You sell those?!

That’s some serious power!

Yes that was my plan as well, but was curious on using a a360x or even 500x in the middle instead of a Radion. Still May do what you did there.

yes, I actually have them listed in the classified section of this site.

The 500 is insane power for a tank that in 20-24" hight, I believe that the a360x is plenty of power.

I have the XR15 and the XR30 mounts available for the RMS rail as well. can be positioned and moved easily, unlike the original ecotech mount.

Old post but do you sell these or if not do you have the file you'd share?

are they mounted on the same track?

is that the same as the 360we?, which i'm sure it is, then yes.
