Hey guys! I think I finally narrowed my search down to the ai prime series (it was that or the kessil a80). I was wondering if anyone can help me decide on which light I should upgrade too. With Black Friday coming up I was also looking for a sale on it if anyone knows the best website to get it on
 
I would get the reef personally. If you really want more blue get the sol. Either will perform well.
 
I was kinda leaning towards the reef one. I have a 20g long tank, do you think the spread will be enough or will I need 2? I don’t really have the money for 2 but I also am not stocking a ton of coral right now, Currently have GSP and 1 zoa with 4 heads. If I have to for the mean time I can keep every coral centralized under the light till I can afford another prime

For a 20L at 30" you will 2 to get proper coverage.

I am in the same boat as you. I have a 29g so 30” long. My budget has me between the Current Marine IC Pro or a single AI Prime .

Would the spread from a single AI Prime be enough to grow soft corals and maybe some low light LPS?

I like the idea of the AI Primes and would add a second when the budget allows it.
 
How about a single Hydra 26hd. Cheaper than 2 primes. I use one on a nuvo 20

I thought that the spread for the Hydra was the same as the Prime? Would there be another benefit to using the Hydra?
 
It's just two primes in one housing, basically. But they cost less than 2 primes. They do cover a larger area than 1 prime.
