Anyone else have one or more of these? If so, what resource do you use for choosing what levels to do of each color? I'm new to the concept of multiple colors of LEDS and would love a primer on the affects each have on growth, or if they are more for display?

All colors have an effect just some more than others. I run my royal blues which is to my understanding the main light used for coral at 60% and my whites and colors at 20-30%

The software lets you select the color mix by temperature. At about 12K all the colors are at the same intensity. As you go higher (like 14K) the cool white, green and red will be running much lower than the blues and violets. That is where I have mine set. The blue is the color that makes the coral colors pop. I haven't had them long enough to say anything about growth

I just ordered my second one to accompany the first.
