This is a frag of the same piece .. can see the colors better but I choose for the bigger piece !!

Also bought this not sure of the name .. but polyps aren’t open so it’s hard too tell

Strange system on these whites begin at a value of 30 and go up too 255 . I have them set too top out at 60 .. think this equals about 30% .. peaking for 4 hrs .. should I increase this then too 5.5 hrs peak time ?

@Jason mack, with that weird lighting program, I'd just use a par meter or lux meter with conversion to get the values you need. Once established, then just record the values on the program for record.
