Questions for radion owners
I have a JBJ 28 that I will rip the hood off of and I want to put a radion 15x pro over it. My tank is in the living room and my couch and chairs sit below the tank (tank sits on original JBJ stand).
If I mount the light 8" above the water will I be blinded every time I sit down to watch TV? Are the 15w pro's gen3's??? Whats a good recommended intensity to start off with? |

Yes, you will see the lights from that angle. The 15x should be the latest generation. The intensity should be determined by the type of corals you keep. I would start at 20% for anything, and ramp up to 50% for softies, and 80% for more demanding corals. Led's can have a laser beam effect that some corals do not like. Especially at high intensity and short range, and if they were previously maintained under T5 or MH. Only go 100% if you Don't overfeed, and never have algae problems.
