SO I went from a HD32 that dies to a 24" photon v2 and am having a hard time trying to set a up a similar setting that I had on the HD.

There seems to a tons of files a presets for the HD but cant seem to find any info for the Photon

I have mixed reef mostly LPS and softies with few SPS.

water perams are good. flow is id good but I keep fighting brown cyono which I am attributing to light.
 
This is what mine are set. I'm only running at 1/4 power

We have several programs to get started with in our FAQ www.reefbreeders.com/faq

The AB+ program is simply Channels 1, 2, and 4 at .25 x CH3, 5, and 6, so red, green, white at .25x the royal blue, cool blue, and violet channels. There is a 1 hour ramp up and ramp down time.
 
Best colors with RB I had was setting 3 and 6 to some level, then setting 4 and 5 to like 40% of that level. Keep that ratio constant and your tank with look bright and cool. RB is rich on purple colors though. See how it goes
