So I purchased a C VUE 40 gallon tank. I have a AI Prime HD 16 light on the tank. I plan on getting a second one for it but right now just have one. I am trying to find if anyone has a good light schedule that they have had success with that doesn't cause to much algae but at same time helped coral growth. Thanks in advance

Typically you can max out the blue channels (uv, violet, royal being the most important), run no red or very little, and however much green and white u enjoy

BRS had a video on the prime that approximates the AB+ bulb spectrum specifically for that light.
I have 2 of the hydra 52hds and I downloaded the David Saxby schedule from the AI website. They have tons of schedules that can get you tesults of a variety of tanks.
