Hi guys, I'm planning to start a new tank (100 cm x 55 cm x 40 cm) during next months and actually I would like to know your impression about AI Prime HD and HM Cetus 2 Led. My idea is a tank with softies, gorgonians and some LPS, arranged in two pillars distant each other about 50 cm. So, for the lighting, I want buy two lights to illuminate each pillar.
Any suggestion is well accepted :)

I'm not familiar with the HM cetus, but I am familiar with the prime HD and will say it's a great light that grows coral, perhaps a member of #reefsquad is familiar with your other light choice. Ive tagged then in this comment, Let's as them ;)

Sorry, I'm not much help. I'm not familiar with the HM cetus either.

Thank you Crabs Mcjones;) However, my doubt about the two different lights are about the PAR distribution, HM electronics on their website talk about a more efficient PAR distribution

I have a Cetus 2, I’ll measure the par for you if you are interested. It puts out a lot of light for such a tiny little thing and the colors are beautiful

I would like to know what it is as well.
I am waiting on buying aquatic life 36” hybrid and can’t decide between these leds either.
