So I just added an Aqutic Life BYO-LED fixture. I am still using the three Hydra 26 HDs and I am running 4 of the ATI Blue Plus 54W bulbs.
Here is a more updated peak PAR layout. I took three readings in each spot and have posted the average rounded to nearest whole number. This was taken with the tank running to get as close to operating numbers as possible.
This is my current schedule: I now have 6 hours of the Hydras at their peak setting.
Peak Settings:
The T5s are set to be on for 4 hours a day (11:00-15:00) so that they will come on one hour after the Hydras finish ramping up and off one hour before the Hydras start ramping down.
I am still seeing great growth, but everything is just a little pale. I just added the hybrid fixture today so I will do an update in 3-4 weeks on how everything is looking.
Any thoughts/recommendations?
