Which layout is correct? Is one an older or newer model?

Led diode counts are different. One has more royal blue than the other.

Looks like they either swapped the RB and 430 or one of the charts is wrong... who knows with these guys... they don't communicate well at all.

Curious if there is any benefit to running the red and green channel. Only curious because my frag tank is running a light that has no red or green channel and there is zero algae in the tank. But I am currently running the three noops and have red to ramp up to 10 and green I believe to 5. White maxes at 15. Fighting GhA and thinking of cutting the red and green channel off to see what happens. Thoughts?

I run 6 V3 pros over a 6 foot LPS tank, before getting them I lost all yellow in my grail torches due to the poor spectrum of old black box LED fixtures. It only took 1 month to get that elite holy grail yellow back in my torch collection!

Thank you @noopsyche

Hey Coral Love,

Did you have a custom profile that you used or one of the pre-set programs?

Custom profile with blues, purples, and violets @ 100% and whites, reds and greens no more then 10 or 15 percent for LPS. Six fixtures equally spaced on a 6' tank.

Would any of you guys be willing to help me make a schedule for my Flex 32.5 that would be decent? I'm trying to get more well versed in working on this but haven't got it fine tuned yet. I'm looking to just run some simple softies, frogspawn, hammers, nepthea, stuff like that

Just use the preloaded settings acording with your tank needs: SPS, LPS or MIx. If you want to change the time settings, go to the proper tab and do it. Also, you can change there the power ammount of each channel. I suggest you to use the lps settings as you want softies and such.
Or, using the lps settings, let me know your time schedule and I´ll try to do it and post the QR.

Hi guys, new kid in the hobby here hehe. I have a 150-liter mixed reef (60x40x50 cm plus sump) that's running for a bit over a year now. my lighting is Noopsyche v3 wi fi 140w which is placed about 23 cm (9 inches) above the surface and the rock for SPS is about 18 cm (7 inches) below the surface (I'll attach a picture) I managed to have stable parameters for a few months and most of the LPS and softies I've been keeping are thriving, I tried a forest fire digitata and a blue stylo and they grow just fine so I decided to give acro a try. after a few days, the acro frags seems okay (judging form PE), but the coloration especially the yellow ones start turning more and more to solid green.

from what I've been reading here and there this is most likely caused by lack of light (PAR), new environment shock, or too much blue in the light. considering the situation, all three might be possible but I'm curious about the blue light thing. since this post is about the spectrum, is there anybody with a closely similar tank size and setup who has been successful and would like to share their light setting?

p.s: this is an old photo of the tank at its earlier stage (those acros at the top are no longer there)

Can depend on factors such as parameters and nutrients as well. Not always dependent on par. A list of tests would help narrow down if it’s a light issue or parameter issue.
Also, what kind of tank is that? Really interesting size and shape!

Also, Acros can go green for a little bit while adjusting to your tank.

I see, I read somewhere that greening can also be caused by too much iron. Would you recommend a reliable test kit aside from ICP, since it's not available in my country?

Thanks! The tank was custom-made to fit into my limited space, hence the dimension. There are plenty of local aquarium makers here in Indonesia, some are accustomed to making saltwater-specific tank
