Does anyone have, or can point me in the direction for settings for the Hydra 26HD light for a Waterbox 100.3 aquarium? I did have a search around and could not find anything. Also, does anyone know how far off the water they should be and how far in each side? Thanks!!
 
9 to 10 inches above water is a good starting point. Aqua Illumination has some downloadable lighting programs under the signature series of their website. The Saxby one seems to be popular.
 
BRS AB+ profile all the way. You can find it in their forum. If you can’t find it let me know and I may still be able to send it to you.

If you could send it that would be great. I had a look at a couple of MS Shared Drive links and they were dead!
 
2 Hydra 26HD! And thanks for the Saxby tip. Is that Dave Saxby? I think I actually met him once in the UK.

keep it simple. space them evenly for best coverage, or if you want a higher light area in the center bring them in a bit closer towards the middle.

mount them to the height so that there is no light spillover into the room, you want that energy going into the tank, not your floor or walls :)

adjust intensity as needed for your livestock.

They are currently 11 inches above the water. They could come down a couple of inches and come in and inch each side and probably forward 2 inches :)
 
For sps? You’ll need all channels to the max for a tank that size.
