ok since am putting down my main 75g tank and setting up a 40B in my room so I wont bug anyone what will be a good fit on a 40B. A radion g2 pro or maxspect 160w 16k LED mix reef as I can only afford one what would be ideal. Would one radion be enough to cover a 40B like a maxspect would?

Thanks for the input

Google is your friend :p anyways the spread for one radion is 30"x30" not sure if with the wide angle lens it will cover the 36" or even raising it higher since you will be loosing par. Are you doing sps?

ah yes that's what I was looking for the spread I couldn't find it or missed it. At this time no sps never had any luck just LPS and softies for now. At this time I just want a clean stealthy looking tank and something that's easily programmable with sun up and sun down

This. Not only cause I run it, but I have noticed a difference in corals.

Now instead of me rapidly killing sps, they die a slow death. (Not cause of lights, but cause my sps game is weak)
