Radion, AI, or Kessil for a 15 cube

[Hawkingcolorado]

OK...I've narrowed it to these 3.. What do you think for a 15 gallon AIO cube?
I want to keep sps, and a clam and some softies...

get the AI nano sol. That is what i have and i love the amount of choices you have. I have heard better of kessil then radion, so that would be my second choice.

I think radion is too much for 15 cube. IMO I will narrow to AI and Kessil. but they have ther good points I think for a cube the profile of Kessil will look great, but on the other heand the AI is better in functions as lowwerd the intensity and color, efects ETC.

Agree on the overkill of the Radion, way too much for a 15g. AI Nano sounds like the best option from what you have listed.

Radion is too much.
Kessil is the most affordable but not programmable so it is either on or off.
AI is programmable with a wider light range....

AI

If money is not an issue get the radion, I do not think the radion is what your system needs but it would look cool and is not gonna hurt anything, but if I was you I would get the AI and that is gonna let you keep sps and the clam you want.

I had to decide between the Kessil and the AI and I went with the Kessil for a couple of reasons.
Mounting the AI can be a pain, its more expensive, and i heard that any programming you do to the light is lost when it is turned off.
I chose the kessil beacuse it was cheap, it mounts easily, and gives a great shimmer effect.
Hope that helps ya

That's not true, the program is stored in whatever controller you decide to use to program the unit (AI's, Reefkeepers, Apex, Profilux, etc).

And AI sells mounting kits for the lights, so it shouldn't be hard to hang.
