I have a pair of AI prime 16hds I was wondering if anybody has some photos of successfully grown SPS colonies under ai prime
 
I know it can be done! While I’m not a really good example atm as I’m battling Dino’s and cyano and still have some weird alk swings going on but I’ll share my monti spongodes easier as far as sps but it’s a beauty. When I first introduced it turned purple with green polyps and has since turned around to the original colors.

Looking good man my Walt Disney is starting to gain color as well . Hard to find ai prime growth pics
 
I’ll let ya know in a few weeks. I just set one up in my sump for frags. It’s only been a few days but so far so good. Plenty of flow so lighting will be the only difference from the display lit by G5’s.
Still need to get a cuc down there.

Keep me posted would love to see the progress the ai prime catches a lot of slack I set mine to the brs ab+ Emulation will see how mine does it took a minute to see growth but I’m starting to see branching from my digis
 
Ai prime from the start?
Yes. That’s a 6g side frag tank that’s plumbed into my display about 9 months ago. That wwc yellow tips in the back corner was a frag when I put it in there. I just moved 2 large colonies into another tank I have.
