Hi all. I have two questions. I bought new gen 5 radions not realizing they are programable through apex. I think I figured out most of mobius except I don't understand the acclimation mode and how to set it.
The second question I have is about using my old gen 3 radion as a refugium light. I have it plugged into outlet 7 on my EB and can set the on and off time but how do I set up the radion program? I can set up the colors I want but I can't seem to set the time for night hours. If the first point is at 2200 it won't go past 2400. I only can put my gen 3 about 4 inches above the refugium bc of space. How high should my intensity be so I don't burn everything up? Thanks for all your help.

For all night go from your start time to 2400 and then from 0000 to your end time.
‘’for the gen 3 in the fuge I would start really low 15-20% and then take it up higher slowly if needed. Being that close to the surface it is going to be really high par and pretty concentrated.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
