From radium to xm10k

[DSC reef]

Yes I have used xm10k bulbs to see the growth difference between the radiums I was using. I cut the initial run time in half for a month but I still experienced some bleaching but mostly on LPS. I personally did not like the look even with T5 supplement but that's my opinion. Didn't see enough of an improvement or growth to keep bulbs I didn't enjoy the look of.

That is a very helpful and informative post.

Thread cleaned up. Play nice, peoples. :)

Corey, I would just run an acclimation period on the lights. Cut by a few hours and ramp it up a little bit each day until you're back to normal.

And might I add , it's even better if you rent out a PAR meter and match the PAR in different section of the reef tank . Will be a seamless transition !!
Excited to see how it goes
