Oof....Radion G4 PRO's are nice but they're also $800USD each. Then again so is her AP700 but does she need 2 of them?
They're also running a 100g which means they're looking at a minimum of 2 fixtures if they go that route. There is a neat little tool that helps you visualize PAR output in Radions based on tank dimensions. Let me see if I can dig that up... Last edited by Moogled; 01-23-2017 at 10:14 PM.

i made enough height in my hood to run a single kessil ap700. as well the plan was to run 2 dual t5ho strips to even out any dimmer spots on the ends.
Radions are pretty but very expensive. Am i the only one who feels like choosing lighting is like smashing your forehead into a wall repeatedly? There are so many options, and so many opinions that its hard to come to any conclusions without picking it up and installing it to decide.

You can find articles about how great such and such lights grow coral for pretty much any manufacturer you can think of. Any decent quality light fixture will grow corals just fine if you have really good water quality. Every light type has it's pros and cons and it really comes down to what your personal aesthetical preference is. The light fixture is only a single part of the equation and by no means guarantees any success. If you are able it would be great if you can see different tanks running different light systems to see what they look like in person. Just in the LFS's in Edmonton there are tanks running Kessils, Radions, MH's and T5's and they all have a different look and appeal to them.
