Hi All, as I stare at my tank today thinking of different ways to upgrade it/burn my money, i thought maybe it's time to get better lights.
I currently have a 29G mixed reef with all the major corals popular in our trade (see build thread for full list). I current have a 5 year old first gen AI prime and a 4 year old second gen AI prime "HD". While it has provided enough PARs for everything and tank generally looked "nice" it still lacked the "pop" in color that I see on some of the video/pictures/store DTs. What do you guys think I should do? Choices are:
1) upgrading to 2 of the latest AI Prime HD 16s
2) add a third "something else" to supplement the color "poppingness"
3) get something else completely.
I understand the transition will need to be slow and steady so assume that's not an issue. getting 2 AI Prime 16HD is probably the easiest and i do prefer LEDs for controllability, but i am open to all suggestions.
Thanks.
