So quick question for everyone, picked up some SPS from WWC and got the little red Ferrari as its one of my favorite acros ive seen, I have it in a high light part of the tank with high flow. Where do you guys keep yours? or other dragon acros?

And no photos. I'm disappointed.
 
Ok ok sorry not a great photo I’ll get a better one later.

Also I’m concerned about my one ai prime being enough to light it I have my first 4 channels on 90% and white at 30%. My other sps has been fine, the green slimer, and the two montis in the photo look great but I don’t wanna lose the ferrari

How has it all been? I have a single AI prime and was wondering if I should get one too!?
 
In my opinion if you are going to grow sps then a par meter is a must. I wasted a year on my tank where sps did not grow at all and slowly frags were dying. I did ICP tests and everything in my tank was near perfect when it came to water chemistry, but after purchasing a par meter found out I was way under lighting my tank. I now sit at 350-450 par on my sticks and growth is crazy fast with amazing colors.

I have the danoplus par meter from Amazon $143 and tested it against the apogee $650 meter and the readings are nearly identical. It’s a fantastic buy IMO
 
My Little Red Corvette is sitting under halides between 500 - 600 par. It was on the bottom at about 300. I didn’t notice any difference after I moved it up. Strong flow in both spots.

That’s it in the center behind the Royal Gramma.
