I currently have a 25 gallon tank with an AI prime. It’s been serving me well.
I’ve started adding more SPS frags and might consider adding a BTA or a small clam. If I did this, I’m wondering if I should opt for a better light then? Such as a AI hydra 32 or a Radion XR15 G5 pro.

Hello everyone,
I bought my first saltwater aquarium 1 month ago.
It is 30 gallons and is 12 inches deep.
It is fitted with 2 Fluval nano marine 3.0 (20Watt).
I am at the end of the cycle period and want to start with the first corals (Softies).
Does anyone know the best light settings in...
I Have an Innovative Marine tank that's 20 gallons. its 13 inches (33cm) tall, and I am using a Ocean Revive T247 light. It is using the default bracket placed approximately 8 inches (20cm) above the water surface. What are your recommended light setting? I know it depends on what you keep, etc...
Hey everyone I'm looking to buy a red sea 50 led if anyone has one available. I don't really care if it comes with a arm or not but that would be great as well.
Hey guys, so I have a lighting question. I have a 100 gallon tank the outside dimensions are 60”Lx19”Dx21”H. My question is what do I need for lighting to light the entire aquarium. Right now as it sits, I have two 24” openings with aqueon opti bright lights on them, between them is a 12” glass...
Wanting to switch my light program to the BRS recommended for LPS dominant tank. Not happy with my current program as it has too much white, and far too many data points to adjust the white.
In addition to the white light I'm needing to increase the PAR after testing, as I found the bottom was...

Hello,
Curious if I can see your light schedule if you have the same or similar size tank?
I’m hoping to have someone come out or rent a par meter soon but would love to see how yours are set up until then ☺️
Hello all,
I am setting up a 3ft wide by 1 ft deep by 2 feet tall reef tank and I am planning on lighting it with AI Prime 16HDs. I have 3 at the moment and I am trying to get a read on how 3 primes can be used to achieve a mixed reef with such a deep tank? Any help and experience is...

I am currently converting my brackish aquarium to a saltwater aquarium. It is a 14 gallon bio cube and it is also my first introduction into saltwater. I bought the tank used and the light in the hood did not work. I removed the electronics and retrofitted an under cabinet white led bar, and an...
The Salifert Ammonia Test is really hard to read for me between 0, <0.15, and 0.25. the readings look different in all types of lighting. Near the window it has a brownish hue to it, not deep brown, but you know... In a white lit room it can be white, yellow or brown depending which way I am...
So as the title says, I’m having trouble deciding on my lighting. The tank is a standard 90 gallon, 48 x 24 x 18.
Do I get 2 Radion XR15, or 4 AI 16 HD’s? Both combos are the same price.
Tank Will be a mixed reef composed of SPS, LPS, and softies. Thanks in advance for anyone who replies!
Hi reefers! I have 1 Ai 64 hydra hd + 1 red sea 90 light for my red sea 170 tank.
Im planning to get another red sea 90 lights just to make the spectrum balance for my red sea 170 (60 x 50 x 50) tank.
Do you think this light is overkill if I adjust all the spectrum by half? Limiting the...
So to start off, I am no expert in keeping reef tanks and I have only kept them for around a year. I have heard of people saying that they get very good growth from 6500k lighting but it really browns out the corals and of course is very unappealing. On the other hand, the majority say that a...

Hey guys so I’m picking up a 90 gallon reef ready tank on Thursday. Currently I’m running 2 AI primes on 40b. I keep all lps with a couple montis and so far everything looks great. I’m trying to figure out lighting for the 90 build though. The dimensions are 48x18x24. I’m not sure if two primes...
