I'm getting ready to move stock from a 90 gallon to a 15g IM Nuvo Fusion cube. Can someone recommend how to modify the Saxby presets for the AI Prime HD 16? 15" deep. It will be mixed with a toadstool, monti caps, chalice and zoas. And... a 4" Crocea clam. I was originally hoping I could get away with placing that guy in the sand because of how shallow this tank is compared to its current home (where it's placed high in the rock work), but with this light it sounds like I should still keep it high.

My thoughts are to start by reducing the whole thing by 10-15% and also a 30 day acclimation with 20% reduction.

I do not have any LFS in my remote area for PAR meter rental.

I have AI Prime on a 15 gallon softie tank (mushrooms and zoa's) its 12" depth, and my light is at 70%. I'm thinking of turning it up because some of my mushrooms are stretching..... I'm not confident that AI Prime is strong enough to keep a crocea clam alive. The light would need to be at 100% and the clam would be at the highest point right under the light, even then I'm not confident.

Really? That is a bummer to hear. I'm setting the tank up with saltwater right now and the Saxby settings look so intense at the peak of their cycle. Ug... I wish I had easier access to a PAR meter.
