Hey Guys, I just recently retrofitted my canopy to house 3 "Gen 3" radions with 4 80w bulbs. The light are front to back (Blue +, GE Daylight, Coral Plus, Blue +)
The 2x Blue + are on ballast abd the GE Daylight and Coral plus are on the other.
The tank is a 180 gallon (72x24x24) with a dream of being SPS dominate
I now need to figure out a lighting schedule: I want to run the T5s for growth ( so essentailly a high noon effect)
Current plan: 11-9 lighting schedule
11-2 Radions ramp up on Radiant Color w\ Royal Blues (100%), Blues (100%), UV (75%) and Cool Whites (35%) (Red 12%) --- to their respective %'s
2pm First ballast w\ 2 Blue +
3pm Second ballast w\ daylight bulbs
8pm Day lights - ballast goes off... - Radions begin to ramp down
9pm First ballast (Blues) ballast goes off...
10pm Lights off
Any comments or opinions would be great on this
