Blades are awesome. I got a couple last year and they are very strong

That actinic glow is unreal! The colors on those corals really pop under the AI Blade. I’ve been eyeing those lights for a while but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Do you notice any difference in polyp extension since upgrading? My corals always seem happier with better spectrum but sometimes I feel like they sulk for a couple days after a lighting change. Also, how are the shades working out? I always wonder if they really cut down on spill or just look cool. Your rock work looks super clean too. Are you planning to add any fish or just keeping it coral focused for now? I’m always

I saw almost immediate improvement in the size of my zoa. I am acclimating for 14 days starting at 50%, 100% blue and purple or whatever and 50% white. The color on the Blood Simple leptoseris big diff. I am hoping the sades help with evaporation and simply tighten up the microclimate. There's plenty of overspill. I have a urchin, emerald crab and Black Blenny. Also a conch that occasionally climbs to the top.
