Fluval Evo x AI Prime HD Par??

[Gaze]

Does anyone with a Fluval Evo 13.5 and an AI Prime HD know the par for the tank or a tank similar to the 13.5g? What is everyone running on their Prime intensity?

AI primes are pretty powerful lights.

 

I run 1 on a 25g hist switched to the HD version.

 

I had a regular prime on my 15g which was set at:

 

2hr ramp up

 

Blues 80%

Violet and uv 70%

White 15%

Red and green 10%

2hr ramp down

 

I had good growth on my 15g with this setting.

That’s around what I did before but I just saw a youtuber say he ran his prime at 9% intensity

9% is barely any light.

I have a 16 gallon biocube and got an ai prime for christmas. If i use your setting can i put it on an acclimation period to slowly get up to full power of your settings?

Acclimating the light is a good idea. 

 

There are quite a few settings out there that are popular. AB+, Pirates of the Caribbean, David Saxby. There are also settings available on Ai's web site. 

 

It's nice being able to tweak the light to your preference.

I use the respites that David Saxby settings have  but I customized some things and the colour %.

ok cool. so when i put in your settings or another persons i can turn on acclimation mode and it will automatically acclimate, correct?
