Make sure you regularly check your lenses and diodes. I have a 6g frag holding tank with an AI prime 16hd that the acros have been slowly deteriorating over the last couple months. I decided to check the par and it was less than 150 in the entire tank. Some areas were less than 100. I started checking the individual channels and only 1 of each blue, royal and violet diodes were working. Now I do push this thing pretty high bc it is surprisingly underwhelming as far as par goes but this is very disappointing. The lenses burned out in less than a year and now the diodes are shot in less than 3 years.
