Hi everyone. I'm still in the process of cycling my new tank and have recently purchased the Fluval marine 3.0 lights. Would anybody mind sharing the settings youre using on the app that are giving you the best results. I plan on having more coral than fish, and am currently running a nuvo 30L tank with about 30 lbs of live rock in it. Just waiting for it to fully cycle before I start adding things into it. Screen shots of your settings for the app would be appreciated. Still trying to figure out what settings are best. Thanks

Anyone? I know this is a newer light and I recently updated the firmware to allow for more time point, just wondering what everyone else has it set at if anyone is using it. Hoping to hear some responses

Don’t have a par meter but this seems to work for me

Nice. Thanks. Right now i'm still working on figuring out the app. I kinda have mine setup like your Han, but debating on doing it more like Intenses with more points. Do you find the additional points and that little dip in the lights you have for a bit in the afternoon helps Intense?

I’ve only been using this light for a few months but these are my settings. It seems to be working well for me.

Does your tank do well with these settings M8? Just literally got some of these and haven't got a clue what settings to use

FYI:

This might cross post to lighting but BRStv Investigates did a review of the AI Prime 16 HD.

In addition to the usual tanks sizes they reported settings to achieve PAR goals for a 12 x 12 inch cube (7.5 gallon) and (if I recall correctly a 18 x 18 inch cube).
