Beautiful selection of corals! Looks like a little slice of a reef.

Do you like the Noopsyche, and what intensity are you running the fixture?
Love it. It was the first "proper" light after I took the original lid off, initially for cooling reasons.

Blues and Cyan peak at 55%
Reads and Greens at 25%
Whites at 21%

Peak period is only 3 hours

What ATO did you go with?
H2Ocean compact ATO.
