AI Prime LED RSR Nano
I have the Red sea reefer 28 gallon with the AI Prime LED. So far all of my corals (LPS, zoas, monti) have done great under this light but I was wondering if anyone knows how strong this light can be/ PAR levels and if it would be sufficient for other SPS, anemones etc. Here are my light settings.
Cool White- 35% Deep Red- 5% Green- 10% Blue- 65% Deep Blue- 60% Violet- 45% UV- 45% They run for 9 hrs a day with a 2 hour ramp time. Should any of these settings be changed for specific corals or do they seem ok? |

AI's website says it has a max PAR of 260 at a depth of 12 inches. Is this 12 inches from the light or under the water?

I was just checking AI's site and it looks like there is a new HD Prime also... I just bought mine six weeks ago so that kinda sucks, but the HD's allow you to pull power from other LED's you're not using much like green or red and apply it to have more blue, or whatever. Honestly though unless the tank is 24"+ deep or you want SPS on the bottom it probably doesn't really matter. Last edited by Potatohead; 06/15/2016 at 10:42 AM. |

I found this thread to help you out. It looks like the rating is going to be under 12" of water. I bet the old one at 500 par was 12" of air.
