Anyway to get the shimmer effect while still running a HYDRA26? I’m running on a rimless Waterbox 20 so not sure how you could run both. I just want the shimmer so whatever will do
 
I believe a diffuser will give more of a shimmer effect than the "tv static" effect those kinds of lights are known for. I don't know if they make a diffuser for that light though and it still isn't going to look like a kessil or halide.
 
Adjust your pumps to cause surface agitation. That is what causes shimmer.
