Sorry for poor pic, haven’t figured out how to take quality ones yet.

Display:
36”L x 15”W x 16”H

Lighting:
3x Radion Gen 6 XR-15 Blue set to AB+ template
88% Intensity
UV - 100%
Violet - 100%
Royal - 100%
Blue - 100%
Red - 20%
Warm White - 91%
Cool White - 90%

Readings taken with Apogee 510

Very uniform, originally had diffusers on but no need. I’m a little surprised that this setup only reaches these numbers. In hindsight I likely would have gone with 2x XR-30’s.

Still unsure why, but the unit on the far left seems to be approximately 10-15% weaker than the other two.

thanks for this post. Very helpful for reefers using similar lighting. Wish there were more like this.
