I want to do a Mixed coral reef and I'm going to do a waterbox 65.4 AIO.47.2"×19.7"×17.7" I've been doing research and trying to see what the best lighting options are. Right now I'm going back and forth between 2- ReeFi Uno 2.1's or 2 Radion xr15s. *my dilemma = Reefi lights sound amazing but don't have many reviews or people talking about them, the Par levels and the quality of lights look unbeatable..... but the radions are tried and true everyone and there mother has them and they are 20% off now at BRS.... hmmmmm and opinions to sway me are greatly appreciate!
 
I have a similar size tank 36x22x22 and use 2 XR15 lights. They are weak lights and I run them at 100% intensity on an SPS dominant mixed reef with decent success. Generally though, a 4 foot wide tank like yours may need 3 lights.
 
I use Radions but I’ve heard great things about the Unos. Try em out
