I do not have one. I have been led to beloved they light up a square 24*24. If you have a long skinny tank perhaps its better to look at a 4 foot fixture, might give you more bang for your buck.

its not a small purchase so i need to be sure if one is going to be enough

With dim's like that, you're going to need 2 for sure. Still cheaper than going to a 4' Vertex. Or have a look at the AI fixtures. Im no expert on them but I think 3 of them at about $399 each might be a better option for you.

I have a Radion on my 30x24x24 and I'm thinking of adding another down the road to allow better "par" towards the edge of the tank.

the ai fixtures are an option but honestly i have no clue about them
i dont even know what kind they are or whether they have lenses or not
guess i will start another thread and see what people have to say

Don't start another thread :lol:. Do a search there has got to be 50+ threads on here and RC for both the AI and Radion.

cool cool cool cool
personally i am biased towards the radions
i really like them plus they kinda remind me of raden from mk
well decisions decisions
if anyone is feeling generous and wants to give away their radions
i called dibs first
any ways thanks for all the info man

I really like my Radion, no question. The vertex has the same fuctionality as the radion, and the have the red mods out now too.

For your tank roughly;

2x Radion = $1700
1x 4' vertex = $2500
3x AI's = $1200

Maybe the new sunbrite fixtures could be an option for you. Only a little more than a single radion and you would get full coverage.
