Hello all. This is my first post, and first tank. Decided to get the waterbox marinex 110.4 back in July. I have been extremely happy with customer service and quality. My only gripe is the suggested lighting (2 ai primes). I know there are similar posts but none address my question. I am currently building a mixed reef and have a stag, poci, and digi in my upper 2/3s. The stag is growing great but not much from the other 2. My LPS and softies are happy but not thriving. I need more light, so instead of buying all new lights immediately I was considering adding a 3rd prime, or even a hydra in the center overflow. Has anyone run a hydra and 2 primes? Besides being not as visually pleasing because I'm a bit ocd. Is there an issue with this set up? I've also considered just selling the 2 primes and going with the photon 48 pro. Anyways, this is my tank. Thanks for feedback.
