Good afternoon reefers, I’m writing as I’m getting my hands dirty with lighting settings. I have 3 Gen 3 Radion XR 30s. I’m currently running Coral Lab setting and adjusted settings to 33% intensity wig Blues at 100%, Cool White at 10%, Greens at 10%, and Red at 15%. I have a 220 and have mostly soft corals. Recommendations would be appreciated as the only thing happy is Star Polyps and Zoas.
 
I use 2 XR15 pros on my tank. I have mainly LPS and a few soft corals. My tank is 22" deep. I am running the lights on the AB plus program at 60% schedule which equates to about 40% intensity. Everything seems to be fine so far. I have not verified with a par meter but just going off other par meter readings that were posted on the internet.

Any chance you can get your hands on a par meter? Maybe from a local club or lfs?
