Lx7 vs Radion Pro Gen 4

[grassi]

Ok, we want to make the plunge and upgrade our T5/Halide set up to LED. This is for a tank that has everything from SPS to zoas for a tank 72Lx24Dx18

I'm looking for best color and growth with minimal shading... narrowed down to GHL Mitras LX7 and Radion XR30w Pro G4.

Which is better??

Greetings from a fellow Portlander! I was in a similar boat a few months ago looking to upgrade lights. After weighing all the options, I chose a pair of the lx7 Mitras. I like the fact that they have 6 light pucks per unit and they really provide great coverage. Their control application is excellent and very granular in the level of control you have compared to the hydra, radion, or kessils, IMO. Also gives you controls over different power output modes, fan speeds, and displays the kelvin color temp as you configure.

Check both out if you can, I did and went the Radion route so its all preference.

While both lights are great, after playing with each I chose the G4 pro. The G4 seemed to bring more life to the tank.
