New member 50 gallon reef

Rama89 · Jan 21, 2025

Good evening all,

This is my humble 50 gallon reef. Been set up for maybe 10 months.

I originally put on my two strip lights (led) that was on a freshwater planted tank. The GSP and anemone are doing fine but I only tried one small coral with no luck.

I have since purchased two Viparspectra led boxes and am a little out of my element as far as proper settings for first install vs final operation for color and strength.

Thanks for any help,
Dave

Ha! A Harry Potter geek! And no, that's NOT an insult! I'm one too! Started those books when I was going through radiation for a very pesky cancer thing 25 years ago! Great stand!!!!
