AI Prime, frag tank

[jsanchez]

Hey guys so I'm looking for lighting that is visually appealing, economic, and fully programmable.

The prime fits all the requirements and at only $200 it is a steal!

The tank will be 24x24x8 but distance from sand bed to surface will only be 6" so light penetration will not be an issue. I plan, and would love, to keep sps/maxima clams. Rock work would be focused mostly under the fixture and the sand bed will be on the outer edge of the lighting and will contain mostly acans/zoas. Would this light be sufficient enough for this? Any other suggestions if not? I'd love to stay under $250.

Yeah. I have the hydra 26s. Aquaillumination LEDs are amazing

The 26 would definitely be enough but it costs more and I would need a controller to have all the benefits of the ai prime.

Get the ai prime. It's more than enough

Can either of you give advice on the settings on the prime. What should I run my colors for best results for coral. No one has responded to my question in 3 weeks. I really like the prime. My tank is 13x13x21 light is more than enough for my tank.

I don't have experience with the prime but so long as you provide enough light the color is all up to you on what looks more visually appealing to you.
