the radions are a superior fixture to the sol or vega. the sol will have a higher par directly under the fixture but the radion will have a higher par over a larger area and a more complete spectrum. Great build and nice comparison.

Beside my lighting dilemma I finally got my Profilux dosing pump hooked up and running. Thing are growing like crazy now. My alkalinity was quite low causing the calcium levels to be high so after a week of dosing only 10ml a day of alk they are getting close to balanced. The corals have taken off, I have never had such good growth. In keeping with my initial idea of a self contained unit I had my friend Chris (lapdog2020) to build me a new top off/dosing chamber tank.....



He did a great job again!

My lighting dilemma is over I sold all my lights and bought 3 GHL Mitras.

I have to say they are head and shoulders above all the other lights I've owned

Huge thanks to Ken at BWA for ordering them and putting up with my daily inquiries about them being in yet lol

I also picked up some new waveline dc5000 return pumps from concept

Thanks to Denny and Sheldon for bringing them back to e-town for me.
