New set up

[snakemau]

Hello!
Question: I'm getting a WB Mariner X 110.4. I'm trying to decide if 3x AI prime 16HD or 2x Hydra 32. Is a mixed reef with mostly LPS and soft and few SPS. My original design was 3x prime 16HD but been thinking if that will be too low for this tank. Tank is 47.2" x 19.7" x 21.7" suggestions?

I personally ran 2 Hydra units on my previous 120 standard 48x24x24 which mainly had softies and a few sticks on the top. Worked well for me using the signature settings.

Were you using saxby's?

Three primes would be effective but take a look also at noopsyche K7 pro which deliver good depth penetration with shimmer with same size as Hydra but at a fraction of cost. Three will be under $600

You'll be fine either way, you can always add one later, or some reefbrites!

Correct, that was it. I went through most of the signature profiles, but found that was a good balance.
