I have 2 ai primes over my newly setup 32 biocube running saxbys schdule added a little longer whites for my viewing what’s a good height to have my light at. I’ve read a lot of people bleaching corals with it

it won't bleach your corals even if down over the very top, I run my ai prime 2 inches above a one gallon pico reef, the white levels are just zero.

so if you see coral lightening, lower your whites to zero or barely above zero and it'll stop. you'd have to be punching very hard to bleach corals with the blues and reds and greens, it'll be the cool white that does it if any. some of the reasons he runs it as blue is bc white selects for algae growth on the glass and doesn't really help with pop colors like no whites do.
