I have an established 24” 60g cube with a radion and ai blade for lighting. I’d really like to add some Kessil shimmer to this tank and was thinking just a Kessil a80 tuna blue.

I don’t really care about extra par just want shimmer. Do you think one of those will shimmer the whole tank? Thanks!

The more emitters or further you space emitters the less shimmer you get all things being equal. With the lower light Kessil and extra emitter I would expect noticeably less shimmer. If you want that effect you want a dense array with a lot of surface agitation.
