I have had my AI Prime Refugium light for about a month now over a 10 gallon QT tank with a baseball size piece of Chaeto. The only other things in the tank are two pieces of seeded rock from my DT and 4 large Turbo Snails. I use water changes from my DT for nutrients and sometimes ghost feed to add more nutrients. Since I got the AI Prime Fuge light, my Chaeto has not grown at all, but algae in the tank has sky rocketed.

The weird thing is that before I got the AI I was using just the generic LED bar that the tank came with, (I am assuming a freshwater fish only LED) and the Chaeto was healthy and growing. It went from a golf ball size to a baseball size in a couple weeks. Then I get the refugium light and absolutely no growth...

I have checked AI's website and several forums and cannot find any recommended schedules and or intensity settings for this light. Will someone that is using this light and having great results please share their programming with me? Pretty please!!!
 
Alright...what about anyone with any refugium light that you can control the individual color and intensity??? I just need an idea of what color and intensity works for you so I can try and replicate it because my settings are obviously not working for me.
