Hello! So I’m very new to saltwater not so much to fresh, and I’ve had great experiences with Fluval lighting so I purchased a Fluval Sea to use for lighting. And it turns out that after some use. I can not find what values to use in order to make my coral really glow in color. Everything I do only makes them all look drab except for the gsp, that one is always glowing green haha. If anyone has some good recommendations on the lighting values to do that would keep the corals healthy and have them glow bright please let me know! Thanks so much and have a wonderful day!

not an answer but….I was looking at that light but the cost vs wattage caused the pause…
Just curious but what’s your tank size, fixture hanging height, and coral/stocking type(s)

I’ll give that a definitive yes, just curious tho, with the AI Sol at $202, would that be a more expandable option to grow with?
