I have 2 AI primes that have been grouped together in mobius. When I turn on any lighting schedule whether it be one of the preloaded ones or one that I create, the lights are not the same color. One is more blue than the other. Has anyone else come across this issue or have any idea how to fix it?
 
Have you done a hard reset? How old are the lights?
Have you reached out to Aqua Illumination to see if there is a fix or firmware update?
The lights are almost brand new. I will try a hard reset but was just wondering if it was a known issue.
 
Yep has happened to me on my old frag system with 4 16hds.
It did not affect corals.

I am pretty sure there is a calibration solution for adjustment on the primes (very similar to radions) I only have one prime on a cube so can't clarify, however i used to have freshwater primes x3 and from memory i am sure you can calibrate. Saying that i always used My Ai for the prime lights. Maybe give that a try if you can't with mobius.

I contacted AI, that was 5 years ago, they said some difference in color can be expected and were not concerned. I showed them the same pic.
With 3 other 16's it was hard to tell the difference in the tank. The cardboard showed it to be different.

I have three freshwater primes that are the same way......it appears it is pretty common with those lights unfortunately.
