Hey guys!
I would really appreciate some input. I was heavily into reefing in 2006-2010, back then it was all T5's and Halides with leds starting to emerge. I just purchased a 29g biocube and would like to get back into my old sps ways but wondering what kind of light to get. I've heard great things about the AI Prime HD's and for the money they seem like an awesome light, I was just concerned about the power. For the money should I get one of those 165w black boxes from amazon for $90-120 bucks or pay $200 for a light that might underperform for corals I would like to grow. If i wasn't in grad school I would otherwise splurge for an AI Hydra 26 HD but unfortunately can't currently justify it. I would love to see pictures of similar setups/examples of lights fitting a similar tank footprint. Thanks a ton!
