Just wondering for everyone who are using these with the radial arms, what schedule intensity are you running? I’m running two over a Waterbox Reef 130.4 with two Quanta Meso Blue bars and I have the Quanta’s at about 40% and the Radions at 55%.

I’m just curious what intensity most are running theirs at. I have a mixed reef with acros and LPS corals. No shops around here have a PAR meter. My corals are growing ok, I was just curious.
 
I have done PAR measurements and running them at 55% is low speacially for sps. I would run them not lower then 85% intensity if you have the blues the deliver less PAR then the Pros

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll slowly move them up. And will do the same with the Quanta bars
