Need ideas for a 12 gallon nano. Nothing fancy needed, will have softies/shrooms/zoas

I used a Kessil and then a OceanRevive T247 over my JBJ when it was running. The T247 was overkill imo for the nano. Personally if I was to set my nano back up I would go with Aquaillumination Prime: AI Prime site (http://www.aquaillumination.com/lighting/prime/)

colorful, wow that to me seems like a lot of light. Do you have it dimmed and what's your photoperiod? How long have you had this tank setup this way? I'm embarrassed to show my tank's lighting because it's so wimpy compared to yours!
