Hey guys I recently got a Kessil a160 for my 18 inch cube (90 litre) Zoa dominated tank, my question to you guys is

1. I have my zoa rack about half way through the tank and the Kessil About 5-6 inches from the water, what light settings/schedule can someone recommend? Currently have them set to 60% blues for 8 hours

2. Also apart from the slightly dirty water, good nutritients, any other tips or tricks to get my zoa’s thriving?

Thank you in advance

happy reefing guys!

Are the zoas open and happy? Or do they look like they're stretching for more light?

They look pretty happy and they are fully open, but when I did get them they were more extended.. now they’re stem has become smaller, I’m guessing that’s from to much light?

Most zoas don't like to much white light ,try more blue and less white. My zoas do best at 10% white 90% blues .

Pictures would help. Sounds like they may be happier now in your tank then when you got them. Sounds like they may have been stretching for more light when you first got them.
