You can see in the pic the color separation from the reef breeders on the sand. LED fixtured with diodes like that produce discoball.Disco ball? I run photons and raduons, and they have some shimmer but no disco ball effect.
Can you elaborate?

ill have to look into it ! what model for a 36 inch tank longThe problem with radions is you need to many to get the par you need/want. I would not run them either but do because I had them from a previous build. I need and run 3 over a 30×24×16 to get the par I need. One Photon is alot less than 3 xr15's.
I bought all mine used and would not pay the price they want for the new radions.
I would run the Meridians if I did not already have 3 photons.
To the OP, take a serious look at the Meridians.
If it was like that in person I wouldn’t run them It’s a bad picYou can see in the pic the color separation from the reef breeders on the sand. LED fixtured with diodes like that produce discoball.
I am considering selling my photon and getting a Meridian. But even though the 35 is supposed to be equal output and coverage to a photon 48, I can’t use it due to a center bar right under the middle led cluster. I need the 45” meridianThe problem with radions is you need to many to get the par you need/want. I would not run them either but do because I had them from a previous build.

I have no disco effect on my 2 photon 50's with 3 or4 uv/v bars. I have never seen it and it's not on my rs170 running a 24" photon.

ill have to sell mine and order some pros when i set my new tank up gotta order 3 so ill tack 2 more on xD
It’s true but I feel it’s from people the buy the wrong version. Like buying a blue and attempting to get a pro spectrumJust switch the pucks out to the Pro layout. No need to sell and buy again.
The Radions put out plenty of PAR to grow anything you want. The low PAR is total hogwash.
True but I heard this was fixedIf anyone wants to knock Radions then knock Mobius. That’s an actual issue.
Best of both worlds lol. I don’t think the Meridian is the same situation. I don’t see anything it’s cloning and is a complete redesign. They have moved from a budget price to a “upper mid” tier price and looks very promising. I know places / people that have tried it and are really impressed. Reputable places. Battle corals. Detroit Reef Club. And a few users on hereReefbreeders lights are fine. Just make sure you can mount them really high. They are just rebranded Chinese lights with American support.
I’d rather have the new Nicrew Gen 2 lights personally.

where can you get the pucks
Where you get them light shadesI have always ran my gen 5 xr15 blues on ab+ 100%.
I run 3 on my 30×24×16 50g.
I ran 4 on my 48×24×16 80g.
My old 80 for reference.
