    I Myself would love Radions LOL! Dont think Derek would like that idea. Unless we won the lottery. Might just go with some cheaper non dimable fixtures. Probably could manage with 3 since we will only be doing softies and LPS.

    A 180 would still be 24" H, same as the 210 you were talking about. But I suppose it's only a 30g difference. :)

    The nice thing about the 180 would be that I could reach the bottom more then likely if need be. :D I dont have to go bazerk with lighting. :D and yeah.!

    Sigh, i HATE to say it... i really do, but 4 TaoTronics would probably do well for you. about $700 and then you could build a couple accent strips with Red Green and Violet on 90 degree or no optics for accent.

    Alot of people like them, and I figure Kevin, who already has 4 AI sol's mounted up, is a pretty good judge of LED fixtures. He actually installed in into his reef he loves it so much.

    that would cover all four people are buying them for $150-$170 so you could probably have a wicked system for around 1 k if you dont care about dimming
