Hello,

I am planning a macro algae/rock flower anemone species aquarium and I wanted some advice on tuning my AI Prime HD to satisfy both of their needs. I think I am going to stick to caulerpa and some dragon's breath for the macroalgae.

Anyone have experience with this or could recommend a good setting? It is an Waterbox 16 aquarium. I know people use the AI Prime Freshwater to grow macro algae but I bought the reef version for the anemones.

Thanks!

Just tune it more white than you would for reef

Plants typically use blue light and red light tuning it more white would probably add more red/green to the mix which should do well. I wouldnt decrease the blues at all.
