Hello!

I've recently reset my tank with dry rock and am running lower level light right now to age it appropriately. I have an aquatic life 48" dimmable fixture with 4 g5 radion xr15 pro and 4 ati blue plus bulbs.

Wondering how high an intensity I should be working up to for an sps dominant 75 gallon tank. How long you run your lights for and at what intensity?

My fixture is about 8.5 inches above the water. Doing coral lab ab+ spectrum for 8 hours at 35% intensity and running t5s for a half hour in the center of that, adding about 5 minutes to the t5 every week. About 200 par at peak right now.

Looking for some success stories with as many details as you can spare for my final intensity, spectrum and photoperiod. Thanks in advance!!

Thanks for trying. I'm going to try upping the t5sa half hour every two weeks until I get to 4 or 5 hours... Or run into algae issues, whatever comes first.
