			 My AIs are 37" from the sandbed and I can grow SPS on the sandbed with no problems.

			 I was thinking about 2 hydra's and 2 52's I can always dim them if they are to intense.

			 You can manage 10 tanks with up to 30 lights with one AI Director. Call us tomorrow if you want to discuss 1 on 1.

			 I think the lights are getting stupid now.  It's all a marketing game about who has the most LEDs and the most power.  Does anyone even run their existing ones at 100%?

			 I hear you Madreefer my SOLs have been on the tank about 2 years now, it just occurred to me I should ramp them a little higher.  
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		
		
	
	
	Also agree with Ron, Kessil makes a good light for guys who want to go simple. Although I see they have now released a lamp that is externally controllable also.  |

			 Well there's those that say AI is a low end entry level led fixture, I have nothing but great things to say about them. I'll be taking 2 of my Sols off and replacing with 2 of the Hydra 52s.
