The key to the disco effect is almost entirely based on optics, the AI products are one of the worst due to the use of very narrow optics. Hanging the lights higher or using them on taller tanks may reduce the effect, switching out the optics for wider angles will also be beneficial. Personally I think the use of optics is old school thinking, today's LEDs are powerful enough and most tanks aren't taller than 24".
