Hello, getting back into the hobby and starting on the nano side. I have never used LEDs before always used T5, but really want to try something new. I’m really into SPS always have, and will make this tank mostly SPS as well. So would 2 AI primes work, or would 1 XR15 gen 5 work. Right now I’m not sure I want to spend money on the XR30 or 2XR15. I could go with 1 XR15 and another later as well if that’s the case.

Just not real familiar with LEDs and I’m sure both will grow and color SPS colors just fine, just not sure which way to go. Thanks for your help
 
To save money and get better results- Ai hydra 26 or 32
 
Ok so 1 AI Hydra 32 HD over 2 16 prime HD is actually better? I just thought with have 2 lights spread apart would create less shadowing. The 32 were on my list as well, just was not sure if I needed 1 or 2 since I heard they are more of a direct light.
