I scored a great deal on a Hydra 26 off of someone on the forums here, its currently on my Nuvo 20.

I am using the saxby preloaded schedule from the AI website and ive noticed a significant uptick in algae since. Can anyone recommend a schedule with a shorter photoperiod? im thinking that may have something to do with it (could be wrong), also looking for something with a little more blue light as I personally just like the way it looks a little more.

Ive tried adjusting the schedule via the app, but I dont want to mess around with it too much as I know that can have an adverse affect on coral.

Side note: its a mixed reef with mostly softies / zoas, etc.

Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated- thanks!
 
Look at Karen's light schedule on the AI Signature site. I used it for a bit on my 36g, then switched over to a Radion and ran AB+
