AI Primes good for an SPS frag tank?
I have kessils in my DT and had to add t5s due to shadowing. I had two extra AI Primes I just put on a new frag tank. Wondering how they do for SPS and if i should also add t5s ( 36” 40 gallon breeder)

adding T5s is really not needed. heres why. normally ppl add T5s to help with the shadowing of LEDs. but since this is a frag tank and your not growing big colonies, T5s simply arent needed for the under shadowing of SPS corals. you will be fine with just the two PRIMES over your 40B frag tank....no need to spend more cash. take that money and buy coral frags...

Primes will do great. They color sps no problem. They don’t have the punch for deep tanks, but for frag tank you will be happy. I had 3 over a IM 20gallon and they grew and colored demanding sps no problem albeit slower growth.
