Looks interesting but other than frag tanks I'm not sure what size tank I'd use it on.

It's probably too bright for my pico but not powerful enough for a 24" deep tank.

Lol it be more cute if the light moved by itself like that with a motorized mount system.

I watched a vid that they claim a 30by 30 spread depth nit to sure

I'm torn on this light as well, as I have an A160 on order but am really second guessing. I have an 8 gallon cube, 12x12x12ish. Currently running a par38 full spectrum.

Guess I will just have to wait until I can see this light in person

Mailed AI for some info and this was their reply

Quote: The Prime will be catered to the shallower end of the tank sizes. Nano tanks or tanks less than 18x18" (20x20" MAX), will be the best applications.
Though you can use them on a large tank, the PAR will be far less than what would be needed for livestock to thrive.

So there you have it.
