So I have an AI Prime on one of my tanks and have noticed an interesting observation.

When I buy Zoas from a LFS that uses AI lighting, the zoas are fine and have no issues.

When I bought from a store running Radions, the zoas closed up and melted away after a few weeks.

I tried different LFS that run radions and same result of melted zoas. Even bought the same type of zoa that matched a store that runs AI. (Same type of zoa Utter chaos)

same result if I buy from hobbyist.


anyone else had that experience?

I guess I'll let you know in a few weeks, I just bought Zoa's from a store that uses Radions and I am using 2x AI Prime HD's (last gen, not the 16HD's)
