Tank is 40 gal breeder
36”L x 18” W x 16” tall

One light mounted 12” above water level

This Viparspectra 165w LED increases strength of light by a unit of 10.
Where should I start? 50 blue and 10 white? No Experience with this light

I would say 40Blue 10White (I started at 45 Blue 1 white) but 10 being the lowest option I wouldnt go much higher or youll fry your corals. (you can gradually increase if you want but you probably wont need too...)

1 white is almost over kill, let alone 10, the new vipar lights aren’t as good as they were last year.
