Hi, who's running these with there nano tanks and what settings are you running for a mixed reef? Currently my light is 14 inches from water surface, IM 25 lagoon 12 inches deep. Starting to see an algae issue creeping up. Light schedule 12 to 10pm with 2 hour ramp up included. also the uv, I hear mixed that anything over 20% is bad and other run them at 100%. Let's see everyone's graphs. Thanks in advance guys.
 
Following. I have a 36 bow I'm planning on running this same light on. I'm also curious to see what people are running these at.

I believe the rule of thumb with this light is less is more. It's a very intense light and with smaller tanks running them on the lower end seems to be a better option.
