Lighting questions Nuvo pro 20 AI prime 16hd

[ngarcia11892]

So I’m running the above tank and light, I don’t have a par meter but any recommendations for lighting, I’m just using one of the ones off the AI website and I’m just running one dead center. Should I spring for two or is one enough and again any recommendations for intensities. Tank will be mainly sps with some lps mixed in. Chalice, micromussa and if I can find one small enough I do want a clam

If you're careful about coral placement, one could do ok on there. It should be about 12" above the water line, and you'll probably need to crank it up if you want SPS. But, with a single light, you'll get plenty of shadowing and dimmer areas for your LPS.

If you were going SPS only, I'd recommend a second one.
