What are you planning on spending?

I think a Radion would be overdoing it, and 1 kessil would be plenty of light.

I would go radion for sure, Personally I wouldn't use any other led besides a pro, Iv had experience with the Gen 1 and didn't like it but I have seen amazing things with the pros so you won't be disapointed imo, I'm a halide fan(big time lol) and I even bought a g3 pro today because Iv seen what the older pros could do, I have seen the kessils as well and wasn't pleased with them either so I'd def try to get a pro if ya can. You won't have to run it at max intensity since u have a small tank so that's even better imo

do u think the radion is 2 wide for the biocube? or does it just need to be lower to the tank?+ less intensity ?
i want the new one but its sold out :|
i was @ LFS tonight and they were trying to sell the kessils

No the radion would work, I just saw a thread yesterday where a guy put a radion pro in his biocube hood and he has an amazing sps tank, I will try to find the thread and give ya the link, It was called phils 28 gal biocube I believe.
