Need Radion Settings Advice

Paul Thomas · May 16, 2018

I have upgraded to a RSR750 recently and about to start filling it with frags. Intend to start with LPS and softies. I have three Radion X30's (on G3 and two G4). All three have the factory diffusers on them. I am currently running the Coral Lab setting at 40% max power. I'm running them from 10AM to 8PM. I would like to hear what the general community thinks about these settings for my pending coral frags. Any suggestions on lighting set up would be appreciated.

So fairly new to forums as a source of info. Does your reply mean something specific?

Typing "bump" is a way to "bump" your thread back to the top since no one replied. Now it's at the top so people see it again

I've got a RSR525XL with 2 radion XR30 Gen 3 Pros and 1 Gen 4 non-pro.

I'm running a modified version of the coral lab profile.
My peak is currently 35% which equates to 155 watts.
V RB B W G R = 100 100 100 40 15 15.
Peak intensity is from 1000 hrs to 1700 hrs.

With the Neptune PAR meter I'm getting about 450 - 500 par 4" below water line and 100 - 150 par on the sand bed.
I think your settings should be fine for SPS.

Hope that helps a little.
