T5 to supplement Radion?

[JurisHP]

Need some lighting advice: I've got a 180g tank (72x24x24) with a canopy that has 3 Radion xr30 pros hanging from the canopy. I want to supplement my Radions with a T5 fixture or fixtures. Any suggestions? I'm concerned about T5 fixture placement (my tank has a plastic strip one on the left and the other on the right from front to back where I can rest things on like scrapers, etc.).

I'm going your route. Have 2 Xr 30 pros gen 3 with 2 xr15 pro gen 3. I'm adding a 4 bulb ATI system. I also have been wondering why would be the best way to place them. T5s in front or behind the LED. My tank is just like yours only 30 wide.

What model is the Ati's do you have? What Model?

I have my Radion's on the back and my Aquaticlife Quad T5HOs in the front. I'm running 3x ATI Blue+ and 1x Coral+. Great coverage and the T5s fill in the tank from the LED shadows.

Do you have Zoas in your tank?

Yes, it's a mixed reef setup.
