What is the correct lamp for my setup

Hello!

I'm in the market for a new light, my tank is 36(L) x 25 (H) 18 (W). The tank is center braced. I currently have a pacific sun hyperion S2 (2 x 75 watt) LED that I supplement with 2 x 39 Watt LEDs. I am looking to replace the pac sun.

I've had some issues due to the depth of the tank with light penetration which is why I added the T5's. I'm not adverse to keeping them but I'm not sure if I should go with 1 x XR30W Pro or 2 x XR15 W Pro for the best coverage / coloration in a mixed reef.

Can you make a recommendation?

Thanks,
Steve
 
With only a $50 difference, I'd say do the 2) 15's. This will make the center brace a non issue, and give you more flexibility with the height of the light off the water.
 
sfb,

I would recommend using 2 XR15wG3 Pro Radions. They will provide you with all the light you could need to grow any type of coral.
