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.
