OK someone straighten me out...

Someone straighten me out... Not new to reefing, more than 30 years of success and failure with SPS tanks. Been out of the hobby for about 8 years until last November. I have a 24" x 24" cube with a single Reeflite 90 on it. This is an SPS tank. I know this light just isn't providing what I need and there is literally no "light wrap" around the corals like was last 150g with ATI Sunpower fixtures. Here's the question... Should I go with the Reeflite 90 and use it in a T5 hybrid fixture, or would a single Radion XR15 G6 give me the power and wrap I'm looking for in an SPS tank this size? Sorry, I have know experience with the Radion fixtures so any help would be appreciated.

For "light wrap" that you are talking about I'd go with the t5 hybrid to add to your reeflite.

T5 will get sun shining on the spots sun ain’t currently shining, love my T5/LED hybrid

The hybrid would work (or even LED strips), but an XR30 would be easier, more controllable and provide almost the same end result (from a shadowing standpoint). I don't think an XR15 would be enough, regardless of what the marketing materials say.
