hi folks!

I would like to know for those who have a HD prime, what are the color settings to get the most equivalent to the ecotech marine Sps AB+. My tank is a 18x18x18 redsea reefer nano and i plan to go full sps.

Currently, my settings are like that:
UV:100%
Violet: 110%
Royal blue: 80%
blue: 80%
green: 10%
deep red: 10%
Cool white: 20%
Ramp: 2 hours

thank you
 
You would want all the blues and violets at 100% , red, green and white 24% . The Prime wont offer that great or spread or par for the Nano. I ran a Reefer Nano SPS dominant tank for 2 years with with a few different lights the prime being one of them. Very little output after 12" depth and shadowing was really bad. Ended up running 2 hydra 26's at about 60% to get proper spread, no shadowing. Growth and coloring was miles better than the Prime or the Kessil I tried prior.
 
my aquascape is primary on the middle so im not worried about the spread. But, if i understand i cant run sps with just a prime?

You can, but you will need to have them high in the tank and once they start growing you will get shadowing.
 

IF YOU HAD TO TAKE A REEFING EXAM, WOULD YOU PASS?
