maxspect rsx 200w

[Jordi]

hello from Spain, I have a maxspect rsx 200 w screen in a 90cm long aquarium with corals sps and lps, which configuration would be the most appropriate for this length and corals.
currently I have
channel a.70
channel b 80
channel c 30
channel d 20
Thank you

If you were to have the ICV6 to go with the light, the app then opens up a lot of presets.

I currently run the mixed reef (SPS and LPS) , and nems!

A 60
B 90
C 90
D 60

Light are on a Red Sea reefer 525 xl for depth comparison with lights on the stock stand.

If you prefer a bit bluer look, decrease A and D equally to your liking.

thanks mta, I currently have the icv6 but I have a network is 250 with the maxspect rsx 200w and I do not know how much light to put, I do not want to burn the colares, the montiporas do not just open well, I doubt in the configuration for the liters I have

I just measured par last week with a Seneye.

With the settings I have listed above:

6” below water line 280 -300 par

Mid tank 180 - 220 par

Sand bed 80 - 100 par

I’m using the factory legs.

I’m using the factory legs.

thanks again, considering my tank is 90x50x55 cm and the screen rsx.200w. which configuration would be the most appropriate for a tank of montiporas and lps.

Perhaps start at:

A 45
B 75
C 75
D 45

Start there.

If you want more or less blue, let me know!

This programming seems good to me, that you would put to the step of the weeks.

I don understand what you mean “put to the step of the weeks”......sorry!

sorry, I was referring to whether it would be the final configuration, or would have to upload something more with the passage of the weeks

Ok! I understand now.

Start there for maybe 2 weeks.

Then increase all 4 channels by 5% per week. Observe for a week.

Check back in with me after a couple weeks and we will see how your corals are responding

I will continue to monitor this thread!
