Good morning everybody.

What is the best programming, percentage and light time to start the cycle and the first corals with the AI Prime 16 HD?

I will use the BRSTV schedule, what is the best way to start the aquarium?

I know that AI Primes have an acclimatization mode, is this mode enough to start the cycle and keep the first corals?

Thanks
 
Blue 50%
red 2%
green 3%
white 8%
uv 45%
purple 55%
 
Thanks

And what is the best photoperiod for the beginning?
2 weeks and ramp up 5% to desired settings every 3 days. Leave reds no higher than 4%
 
If you watch BRS 5 minute guide I think best is no lights for first 3 months. Maybe just a tiny bit of blue during the day/night if you want to be able to see your fish
