Kessil A80 / Nano and SPS / Please advise before I pull the trigger

Go big or go home. Congrats, very exciting.

Yep,
Going big or going home. Were going to see what this a80/t5 hybird can do.
If it can't do it then that's a -$320 to the reefer nano.

I got a Setosa up top and when I got it about a year ago, was about the size of a quarter. That thing is like 5" now and every week it's still encrusting. I've never seen a Setosa spread out like a thick monti. Maybe the 2 t5's are making it grow wide along with the tall spurs too?

Nice, I went with the bigger A160WE... I'll share the beginning of my tank.

You did good. I'm cheating with t5's.

MrMichael has already seen the growth of the other sps with the Kessil/T5 hydird.
I re-arranged the corals and...
The green and pink digitates on the top right are the new sps colonies from Divers Den (WYSIWYG)

We'll be able to see how they do over the long haul. ;Writing

All the little bump are new growth in one week under a Kessil A160WE... There's around 20+ of them on that one frag. Whoever said Kessils can't grow SPS?

Here is my progress its been awhile so this birds nest is growing well. I had my light way to high and was about to bleach it but I turned it down and it's getting better. I love this light for my 5 gallon tank. Sorry my camera phone sucks.

@e572
Just in case case you or anyone else wants to see how the A80/t5 has been doing in growth, health and coral colors.
