One of my Kessel A360 Tuna Blue just died so I bit the bullet and purchased two of the X360 Tuna Blue. My old schedule ramped up with a controller ramping up to 35% color and 100% intensity for a couple hours. It ramps up and then down on an 11 hour cycle. Does anyone have a suggestions for the new X360's?
Timing?, Color mix? Intensity?
I'm going to assume the new Kessel are 15 to 25% brighter.

An A360X is going to be about 15% brighter than the A360WE was.

I'd start with a peak intensity of about 85%, but run an acclimation mode for 1-2 weeks just so your coral can adjust.
