Radios all day long. I had kessils at start but they were too noisy and the fans loud.

Depends on what you plan on keeping and your budget.
If you were planning on heavy sps, then 3 would probably work.
If it were more of a mixed reef, softies, lps, and some sps, then 2 gen 3 Pro's with wide angle lens would be more budget friendly.

Radion Gen 3..

Thnx for the reply mate. I had a spare gen1 laying around so I went and got a RMS and stuck it on. It's going to be a heavy Sps with few Zoas. Iv lowered the intensity to 50% and already the few frags I have are looking amazing.and the algae has vanished.

I'm personally a fan, though I wish I had gotten the pro's & tir lenses upfront.

Pretty much use anything but an iPhone... they deal with blue & actinic terribly. If you have the ability in your camera app or on your phone, adjust the white balance. If that fails... you can use the mode button on the radion to switch to a more friendly kelvin light level for taking a photo, but warning, be nice to your fish and don't do it at the extreme ends of your light schedule (ie, go low light to max light).

Thanks for the info.....this picture actually was taken with an iPhone but with the VSCO app, with WB adjusted. I also have a Canon Powershot SX20IS but I am no good with that either lol. I can fix the oversaturation of blues but for whatever reason my pictures always appear to be a very low resolution? I have seen some iPhone pics that were pretty clear so I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
