I'm back after several years of being out of the hobby and I'm trying to decide on how I'm going to light my new setup. I have a 29 gallon 30 inch long tank and I want LED's that will allow me to keep any corals. I've been eyeing the 27" Maxspect Razor and the Ecotech G2 Radion. I like the length (and assumed even coverage) of the Razor and the bells and whistles with the Radion. My concerns are that the Razor will not be bright enough for clams and SPS, but I'm also concerned of shadowing lengthwise and overshooting the light when it comes to width with the Radion. I think overshooting the light will look sloppy and wasteful.

I'd really appreciate some of your opinions in helping me to decide. Thank you so much! Just for the record, I have been researching this for hours. There's so much conflicting info out there. I'm also up for other options for LED's.... The Radion is tops for my budget.

Another option (much cheaper too) to throw into the mix..
