need help setting up Nicrew Controller (2 navareef 65 lights)

[Rooles]

Hi!

I wanted to ask the experts in how to setup my navareef 65 lights using the nicrew controller.

I have a 32.5g aio (32.5x15x15 inches). I have zofty/lps corals. What color settings should i use? And how long should i ramp up/down and how long should the lights be on?

Heres a pic of the controller settings and light information

Thanks everyone!

I have the Nicrew 100W Gen 2 and with the same controller. I run my lights for 12 hours with gradual ramp ups and downs.

This is my schedule

9:00am - 11:00am
————————-
Blues and Violets ramp up from 0% to 100%

11:00am - 1:00pm
————————-
Whites, Greens and Reds ramp up from 0% to 30%

1:00pm - 5:00pm
————————
Lights are at full spectrum with Blues and Violets at 100% and Whites, Greens and Reds at 30%. PAR values at this level is around 350-400 at the top of the rockwork and 100-150 at the sandbed

5:00pm - 7:00pm
————————
Whites, Greens and Reds ramp down from 30% to 0%

7:00pm - 9:00pm
————————
Blues and Violets ramp down from 100% to 0%

I have mostly SPS in my tank which is why I run my lights at high intensity. With Softies and LPS I wouldn’t go as high.

That sounds good! I'll have to for sure start low and work it up slowly. How tall is your tank?

It’s a nano cube 17 inches high.
