Hey Everyone, im starting up a new tank soon and i was looking for some input on the lighting. The tank is a 2.25 x 2.25' x 5' peninsula. Im thinking about going with 3 Radion xr15's and then 2 AI blade 57' grows to add in some fill light. What are your guys thoughts? I was thinking about maybe adding a 4th Radion, but i keep going back and forth on if that's overkill. My tank will be a mixed reef or lps and sps. This is the last piece of the 'puzzle' and then ill be ready to start ordering all of the new equipment. Once i get the lighting finalized im going to start a build thread w/ all my equipment listed too, if anyone is interested in following along as i go :)
 
I think you'd be fine with the setup mentioned. 3x radions will offer plenty of primary overage and the blades will kill shadowing. You can always ramp down the intensity as needed to accomplish the desired PAR.
