Maxspect R420R users on nanos

Lets see them and show that AI, Radions and Kessils aren't the only ones that can do reefs.

I have a Maxspect R420R on my Fluval M60.
I have yet to fill this tank with corals, but I plan on getting more this next month.



I am curious to know what other's are using for their lighting schedule.
I am thinking of keeping this tank limited to zoanthids, LPS and encrusting montipora corals; along with the two rock flower anemones.
I have been debating on switching the Maxspect out for an extra Radion I have laying around. I like to custom programmability I have with my other Radions. But I would like to give the Maxspect a fair trial before I switch light fixtures.
Any thoughts?

Wow really? No one else uses R420Rs on nano sized tanks?

Not a nano but run them on my 6x2x2 I run 2 units.

How have you done that can it be done using Android?

 

[AdamNC]

I dunno. What I meant was I adjusted the R420R just for the pic taking to show health and growth and then back to the normal. Otherwise it's all blue like this.

 

[Marty.h]

Ah I thought you meant adjust the lights themselves as I was not aware of anything that could crossed wires.

Tank looks stunning though and good growth :)

Yea by adding more white Ch1 and less blue Ch2, like adjust ch1 to say 100% and ch2 to like 25%. Then after the pic taking revert back to the normal percentages.
