AI Prime for a frag tank
Hi All,
Just set up a small frag tank. 24" X 20" X 12". Would one AI Prime be enough for a mainly SPS tank? If not, any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Yes it will. Center of the light will have the most PAR and will follow the published illumination map outward

Hey finally, thanks. I k ow the par is lower than desired. As long as it can keep them alive for a short time I can work with it.

Keep the frags centered under the light and higher up than lower. This will maximize par. But keep in mind that they will also put out more par than you think so you need to be cautious with where you place them. Start them lower and off to the side then work them up closer to where your par levels will be under your DT lights.
