Ugh... Had to send the light back to CoralVue under a warranty claim.

what happened? That is disappointing to hear.

what happened? That is disappointing to hear.

The light looked great, but it wouldn't hold to a schedule, like in the app. So essentially the light stayed on all the time, unless I went into the app and turned the settings to 0%.
So just found out, CoralVue couldn't fix it and they will be sending me a new "Demo" light as a replacement. smh.

Thank you CoralVue for the quick turnaround.

Thank you CoralVue for the quick turnaround.

Whats the verdict on this? What do you think this is on par with? Looks like a great unit. Unfortunately not much out there about these.

Well I haven't had it that long or have a par meter. But I have a 20g (24" long) with 2 ai primes and I have this light on a 24" cube. It definately gives better coverage that the ai prime, as I need 2 ai primes on my 20g. I think I'll be happy with this light in the long run.

I have 2 over my 110gal. Great coverage as you said. Just curious..what is your lighting profile looking like. Sone softies are liking it and some are not. Heres mine below

I was running this (1st pic), but increased the white for sps (2nd pic). I have a mixed reef.
Disclaimer... I made my light schedule from previous examples of AI Prime light schedules and tried to make something similar. I have not tested this schedule in any way. I'm no expert. Lol.

Any updates from reefers on these lights since? How are they for SPS growth and any issues or niggles? Thank You!
