So i decided to switch from my 6bulb t5s to two radion xr15w pros. I'm pretty new to leds so i have a few questions. My tank is mainly sps it is a 57 rimless. I'm using the rms to mount the two lights should i keep the stock lenses on them or use the wide lenses? I downloaded battle corals schedule and i will be running an acclimation period for 3 weeks starting at 35% does this seem too high to start off?

I have same light, but I stayed with the preloaded templates and started them at 45% then up current 65%.

The lens that it came with is the wide angle so I would think that you would want the wider coverage.
The other lens wider I'll be much narrower n not give coverage to outer edges...don't know if you want that that.
