AI Hydra Lights help

[Ahmed Talib]

Hello, All I need is help setting up AI Hydra Lights.

I have 2 AI Hydra 26 in my 30 gal tank. Length 30.625 IN Height 19 IN Width 13.25 IN

And now my HD Hydra settings are this. Please check the attachment.

I run it from 10 am to 10 pm, 12 hours daily. I heard people saying. blue light is not suitable for corals. Please guide me on this.

I have full of LPS torches and scaly. Torches are in the middle height, and scoly are on sand.

Will appreciate the help

Blue light is fine. Most of my tanks have some blue in them througout the day.

I seriously doubt "blue light is bad" holds up. One of the very few colors coming through in nature is blue. I'd recommend you to have a ramp up and ramp down and not a sudden shock like that. I used david saxby his lighting, but since his tanks have more depth I just took his light schedule and reduced the lighting a bit.

Excuse me.....

Blue light is not fine. Blue light is system requirement. ;)

Yes, we can debate, if we must, how much blue, white, red, etc, but, without blue at specific range of spectrum, you really cannot grow much.
