Hello fam.

So just visited the farm in CT wow such amazing corals and great deals.

I am stuck BEYOND stuck on where I should have my lights.

I have the g3 60 watt smat farm! Any idea what A B and C should be? And also. Is the “purple - C” necessary? I’m trying to figure out now that I have more coral, I’d like to have them happy
 
I don't personally own that light, and it will depend in part on your tank depth, but I would probably run:

  • A: Main Channel: 14000K Cool White,blue,warm white - 50%
  • B: Blue Plus: 450nm Deep Sea blue+460nm Dark Blue+470nm sky blue - 100%
  • C: Purple Plus: 410nm Violet, 420nm Purple 430nm Indigo blue Blue(470nm) - 75%
Should at least get you started. . .
