Im going to add a radion freshwater tomorrow.... i looked into the difference, and without the green or red on either, the FW is about 70% of the xr15pro in terms of wattage. instead of cool white, there is neutral white. Should work out.

heres some new corals... i got an acro crab on this one

favourite starfish..

ok, added a freshwater radion... what a pain in the ass. At first reeflink couldnt distinguish the saltwater lights from the FW in terms of programming...bunch of restarts later it now knows there is a new light.Next it wouldnt let me add a FW light to my aquarium with XR pros.. pfft.. lame. Had to make a separate aquarium and copy the schedule. To Match XR pros at 35% the best i could, i set the FW radion to 30% of the neutral and full of everything besides red and green, overall power 65%... looks similar... well see.

Looking good! Here's hoping mine will look as good as yours!

How high are you mounting those 3 Radions at the moment? Light coverage seems decent.

Right now they are about 9 and bit inches from the water, also with 120 degree lenses. On the right theres actually 2 together, 1 xr15 pro and a xr15Freshwater lol, softies seem to like it. I need one more on the left and i should be good for all corals in some spots..

your tank plan looks awesome, an idea for a bright coral (there are some red ones) instead of having to hand feed each sun coral every day, you could try a Cynarina.. this is mine after hand feeding, (maybe twice a week).
