Hi I have two Radion pro XR15W and one radion gen 3 pro XR30. I plan on having at least a 2" sand bed. I was hoping to get away with what I have. Going with a mixed reef with sps towards the top. What do you think will this be enough or grab an extra XR15 or XR30 pro? Thanks

I also have two Kessil a360we that I was going to sell bit I can mix to add a bit more coverage and shimmer.

Aquapod,

The XR15wG3 Pro Radion is designed to light an area up to 24 x 24 x 24 inches. With that in mind, using only 2 XR15 would provide enough light or even coverage for your aquarium.

Oh okay I thought with the XR15 I would be at 18" with the regular lenses. Since tank is so deep I didn't want to put the wide angle. I also thought the XR30 was 24 with the standard lenses. So I thought I would be off a few feet for a 72" long tank
