New Hipargero 100 watt light thoughts?

[BadMagnificentFirefish]

Thank you all for your contributions, I was curious about this light. Anyone running it with a more daylight spectrum?

Im looking at this light for my 13.5 Evo. Any info why or why not would be awesome.

Yes, so after using it for around a month and a half I have found some pros and cons. All my corals are happy and h

Pros:
- light is strong, bright and will definitely provide enough par (however this depends on your tank dimensions, I have a 20 gallon tall)
- Good light spectrum and customizability to get desired spectrum
- built in timer
- built in interface on light
Cons:
- Remote is unresponsive at times
- Customizing and interface could be complicated for some people
- Mount/Mounting issues (saw some people had issues on rimmed and rimless tank mounting)

Does it make corals pop? That is the only thing that has me looking at the ai prime. I have a 32.5 fluval flex and will be putting 2 lights on it.

Anyone have this light? I think it’s new and made by the same people that made the 30 watt hipargero A029 light. Wondering if I should upgrade to it from the 30 watt hipargero. Currently have a standard 20 gallon mixed reef tank. Any thoughts or opinions?

I have 6 of them. I originally ordered 2 for a 75 gallon saltwater tank.

Upgraded to a 125 gallon and purchased a 3rd.

I liked the automation of it so much I got 3 more for my 125 gallon freshwater tank.

I've not messed with the levels any, only set the tank type and schedule.

I have one of these fixtures running on 15G innovative marine. It’s a lot of light so I turned it to probably 40% of total power. All corals are happy no one died or bleached zoas growing like crazy. I’m planing to update to tideline 62 very soon so I’ll get another one of these lights.
