Supplemental LED Lighting

[Djbetterly]

So I just put up two Radion XR15's on my tank, 50 gallons, 36" wide, 18" deep. I'd like to add some supplemental lighting on the front side to help with the shadowing. I've been debating between the TrueLumen Pro strips and the ReefBrite Tech or XHO. I'd most likely do complete blue with either. I'm just curious what others might think or recommend?

Reefbrite XHO look really nice. The techs are supposed to be good and are much cheaper. I'm told the techs use blue lights whereas the XHO uses blue/purple LEDs.

Reefbrite is a high quality, local ( NJ) company with a great track record.

I have BuildMyLED Super Actinic on both of my tanks.. More led for the $ than Reefbrite. I've seen Reefbrites in person, they're nice but like BML better.

I picked up a TrueLumen to see how it looks, if it doesn't do the job filling in the shadows I'm going to order a Reef Brite.

@kworker I do like BML, I have one on my fuge, its incredible and well made. They are slightly more than the Reef Brite though.

Dustin, I think your over thinking it a bit. I'd see how your new Radion's work first. Besides, I don't recall you having a lot of overhangs on your rock work.

I overthink everything
