Hey everyone,
So I have had my 3 Hydra HD's on the easy setup for the past year, but I wanna adjust it and change some stuff around. For some reason I seem to be not figuring it out and feel I am probably just overlooking something so wanted to post and see if anyone can help.
I want to change how sundown mainly is, less of everything except that actinic blue feature to see corals pop at the end of the night.
Every time I try to change the time and effect, it does it immediately, and not at the desired time.

Any good resources to figure this out?
 
What controller are you using?

That is the question! How are you trying to control them? I know there are many Hydra users out there that can help.
 
I have found using a internet browser works best for me and use manual. If you would take a screen shot of your current setting and post them, this would also help:)

Thanks so much. @jsker I would love a setting like yours, how do I use an internet browser as you said?

Will try and post what I have today.

Thank you everyone already for the input!

Log into the AI cloud via the web browser on a computer. I have big fingers and found it much easier to use a mouse and larger format to adjust the light. With the app and browser one can also upload presets from other users by using the star in the app and share icon in the browser.:)

I have just started using an AI Prime, and have been using this program from Stuart Bertram for the last few days and my corals immediately responded [my BTA, Acans and a couple of my SPS in particular]

There are a number of programs there, but warning to make sure you adequately acclimate if you use a more intense program than you previously ran.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 4 20.0%
  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 3 15.0%
  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 5 25.0%
  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 4 20.0%
  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 4 20.0%
  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
