welcome to reef2reef. I have a couple mounted on a 4 feet tank. The settings are as below:
I have light guards installed on them.
These lights are okay at best. The blues lean towards the purple end. The cool white is yellowish. Although these lights have both UV-A & UV-B, while the Ecotech Radions only have UV-A beads, I honestly don’t know if UV-B is even required. I read somewhere UV-B is essential for plants, and that’s the only reason I got these lights. Also the radions grow corals better.
I finally got the look by eyeballing the radion lit tank and matching the color by fiddling in the Chihiros app. This is to mimic the AB+ template. But tune it to your liking. Par wise can’t say, no clue as I don’t have a meter. I used a basic light meter at the surface of the water to match the light intensity of both tanks. My other tank runs radions in AB+ at 65% intensity.
One word of advice, clean the dust off the light regularly. Atleast once a month. One of my lights blew a TO-252 MOSFET because it ran too hot.
