    Take a look at these fixtures, I decided to go with these on my new 210 gallon tank. Apollo Reef LED | Reef Led Lighting I picked the non dimmable fixture as i can just use timers to control the lights. The deciding factor was looking at tanks that have them and the cost.

    I have 2 AI SOL Blues over my 120 with softies, some LPS and some SPS. Run at about 60% power and hung 12 inches above the tank. I LOVE them. I was hesitant to spend the money on them, but now that I have them, I would not go back. I have also heard great things about the Radion, but have not experienced them. I can only speak to the AI's, and they are awesome.

    I have 3 Sols on a 57. Sue me, I like light! I love them. I'm not going to say anything bad about the radions, but my LFS has them, and my stuff is blowing his display away. Obviously lots of variables, so it's about the least scientific comparison ever.

    That said, I wouldn't trade the Sols for anything right now.
