I went to the Current website last night and found some advice for how to mimic 6500k and 10/14k lighting by adjusting the intensity and colors on my light. My coral color popped last night for the first time ever! I am going to give it another month or so and see if the growth rate increases at all. It may just be I didn’t have the light spectrum just right before.
Can you post the link or the info on this? On mimicing the 6500k and 10/14k

Okay so I have been doing some research because I would like to change the lights on my tank. The ones I have right now are just regular, boring lights with a on and off switch, no dimming lights or blue light (moonlight?). Any recommendations? Something not so expensive of course. I attached some pictures of the tank. Don't judge my tank, there is not much in there yet lol.

I will be selling my entire setup of Current USA lights like Bluetooth modules module and it’s 36”long and will support upto 48” long tank. What are you planning as your live stock?? PM me if interested I will send you pictures. Selling as I am planning on a new 180 build.

How are your lights working out? I have 2 current marine ic lights on my 24" × 24" cube and am wondering how well they will support sps and lps. I have one soft coral now and its doing great. I love the features with the lights I am just concerned about their ability to grow the hard corals.
