Does anyone know how to blend a 10K 15K and 20K on the new hydra 52's?
Sure wish AI just had a preset for that.
 
Just got this from AI

Hi Greg,
Historically, we haven't ever had presets for specific Kelvin in our controlling systems. However, this is something that may become available in a future firmware update to the Director.
If you are looking for a 20K spectrum for the 52, would recommend a 1:2 Ratio of White to Royal/Deep Blue on the lights. The other colors can be adjusted as you wish and won't have a dramatic difference on the color temperatures, however, would recommend keeping them at or lower of that of the White Channel.

this is for the hydra 52's
Justin Walsh, Jan 21, 11:31:
If you are looking for more of the 10k, the exact opposite in that of a 2:1 ratio of White to Blue channels would be very close.

- Justin


The regular Hydra's 18 to 20K setting would be a 1:1 white to blue ratio due to the fewer white to blue LED ratio in the unit it's self.

 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?
