New Lighting

[reefertank]

So I just switched from a single China led full spectrum 105 watt non dimmable and a 2 lamp t5 to a maxspect razor 300 watt and 4 lamp t5s. I am only running the t5s for 2.5 hours a day during peak time and the maxspect is ramping up to 50% on white and 70% on blue for 5 hours of peak time. My zoas all appear to be stretching and acans are stretching out with no outer rim (if that makes since) should I just wait it out it has only been 4 days now? Also they don't seem to stretch as bad during peak times.

Any ideas

How long is the total photoperiod?

I’d go ahead and increase the time on the t5. Wait a week or two and increase the peak time on the led as well.

Photo period 12 hours 1030 to 1030

Yeah that makes since the old 2 bulb t5 was on for 9 hours a day.

With and without a meter , it’s how you find the sweet spot.
A little more at a time and watch the coral.
