Hello I'm new to the hobby...I have a reefer 525xl with 3 hydra hd 26 what is everyone running for settings!! Need help please
 
Welcome to the forum and the hobby.
First question- what corals will you be wanting to keep in the tank?

I know there are quite a few members running 26HD's and they will likely offer some advice shortly. I run 52HD's so my settings will probably be very different than what you will need for your tank.
 
Most important increase the intensity slowly these babies are strong. I run mine pretty high at
B RB UV PURPLE at 86 right now and
W R G at 45 30 30

It gives the tank a nice crisp white but the corals pop because of the RB aND uv
 
I have been running sense day 1 80 uv V Blue and 90 R Blue and 25 green 25 red 25 white
