I recently picked up a frag tank that’s 36”x18”x9”. It’s a shallow tank. I currently have 2 Hydra 32HD mounted on the tank with HMS mounts. It’s about 13” high from the water surface.

Does anyone have a light schedule that’s great for SPS only? I have checked the presets on AI website, but I wasn’t sure which one would be good for me (maybe Saxby’s?). It would be greatly appreciated if you could share your schedule! :)

Here are some pics that I took when I got the tank:

Check out the signature series on their site.

edit oopsies I can’t read. Saxby is popular and I run it with tweaks, I’m mixed reef tho

Awesome. I will check out Saxby’s and Leon Tan‘s schedule. I guess I can just rent a par meter and increase the intensity if the par is low.

Hello all! I was just looking to see what other reefers had their Hydra32HDs schedule on and I think the Signature schedules on their website is for the Hydra26 or the previous model so I think the settings need to be adjusted for that.
In my jam-packed SPS frag tank I run my UV, Blue, Violet, and Royal Blue all at 110. Greens and Red at 10 although most people keep them lower to prevent nuisance algae growth. White at 25 at the standard 11-12 inch above the water level. :)
