Just bought an AI prime HD+ for my nano and it looks awesome. I’ve been playing around with the light spectrums and brightness for throughout the day. My anemone is thriving under the light which is good. I am going to buy some softies, some LPS corals pretty soon. Just wanted to know if this lighting schedule and brightness is good enough for them. The second screenshot is the numbers for about noon time.

My personal recommendation would be to minimize/eliminate your green/red spectrum % and increase your first 4 spectrums. Red/green adds to algae growth.

Mine is as follows:
UV: 118
V: 118
RY: 140
B: 116
G: 0
DR: 0
CW: 60

I run a 4 hour ramp up/down from 0%. Run a 4 hour peak. I dont run the moonlight mode or anything like that.
