I recently insulated this light on my 30G reef, although I love the light I have been having a little trouble picking spectrums, intensities, and a good schedule. Right now Im running the light from 9am-9pm. I feel that I have put the white a little too intense I had it at 30% and lowered it to 15%, I also have the aquarium near 2 bay windows so I sure that the lower whites should help. I have my blues at 70% mid day.

What do y'all think? Anyone want to share their schedule and intensities?

Thank you!!!

Its Ecotech Marine lighting suggested spectrum for SPS dominant tanks using Radion lights. It’s basically the whites, greens, reds are 25% of the blues. For your photons channel 1,2, and 4 would be 25% of 3,5,6. For more information you can google it or look on Reef2Reef. Happy Reefing!
