I just put it in yesterday and haven't played with any settings besides the reef crest mode. So far, I love it.

Everything is automated except the water changes...for now.

Profilux and a 3 Pump Doser

Currently I dose the Two Part Solution, but will be switching to the balling light method
when this batch runs out. I also Dose 2ml's of Phol's Xtra daily, and 2 Caps of
AquaVitro Fuel twice per week.

You can see the Simu-Stick in post 8 with the rest of my lighting.
