So when you're running 8 x 5 watt whites, 8 x 3 watt blues and 10 x 3 watt royal blues at full power and you turn on the 4 x 3 watt reds, does the color of the tank turn purple or pink?

My question is, if you're running the whites and blues can adding the red and green LEDs actually change the color of the light? Or is it only really visible when the high powered LEDs are off?

Just an update of sorts.
Have received two quotes so far, and as far as vendors see it, there is a 1 1/2 to 1 ratio at minimum for Sol fixtures. Depending on if you have a center brace or not.

The basic argument either way here seems to be that if they were the same price, must people would go with Radions.
I like the fact that there is only a need for 2 fixtures instead of 3 or 4 with the AI.
Broader light spectrum.
Better spread.

Good choice and I agree with you 100%. You won't be disappointed at all!

Okay Off to the hardware for sale section and see if anyone wants a couple of light fixtures.
Thanks for all the comments...
