What setting do you have for your Kessil? I have the same, a160we, I looked on internet up and down to understand how the acclimation mode works when introducing new corals - not any luck; my only hope at this moment is someone will chime in and explain how it works. If you know - please do. Regarding intensity again, kinda hard for me to tell if 30% is better than 35%?

Mine maxes out at 60 percent. I’m not sure on exactly how to acclimate. I think with sensitive corals u start them low or in shady areas and slowly move them.

When I went from my prime to kessil I did set it at 2 week acclimation starting at 25 percent.

My corals love the kessil.

Went away for a week and didn’t do maintenance for another two. Everything looked fine and I started up my routine again and my corals all just withered away. I lost many of them, and several tank inhabitants.

Fun news is I got a 60 gal cube for 100 dollars.

I have ordered a bunch of fun stuff and will start a new bulls thread. This tank will be taken down for now.
