Kessil A360we lighting schedule?

Jrco226 · Dec 9, 2016

Hey everyone, I seen multiple threads with someone asking this question but never really getting straight answers. Currently I ramp up to 60%intensity and 50%color with the light 8" off the water. I have a IM Nuvo 40. My system has been up and running for about a year now. I have mostly LPS and a couple of SPS. My sunset monti has faded over the past few weeks. It's located a on the bottom quarter of the tank directly under the light. Any thoughts? Also what's everyone's schedule?

I have the 160we over my pico, I run a 10 hour schedule with 90 minute ramps. Intensity is never above 35%. Color is only to please the eye.

As for the monti, I'd like to see your water parameters before I say it's the light.

I did some test this morning. My phosphates need to come down (.04) but everything else is in check. Thanks for the response.
