Hey Everyone,

I decided to purchase the Reef Brite XHO-K26s to add on to my Hydra 32s. My hydras currently run on a set AB+ program and I would love some advice on if I should change the program with the addition of the Reef Brites and how I should best acclimate my tank to the additional light. All advice and insight it greatly appreciated !

My tank is a standard 4ft 90 gallon mixed reef but I am getting more heavily into SPS.

Thank you! After being little annoyed that the Hydra 32s weren’t cutting it I did a little research on how to supplement and stumbled across these. I’m pretty excited to add some more blanketed par to the tank and hopefully see some more color pop and growth in my coral. I’m just a little nervous on how to acclimate my current coral to the addition and how I should set the schedule….. I’m really surprised there isn’t more info online or at least a few more YouTube videos on the product.
