Hey all I’ve got a Fluval 13.5 evo and just picked up a hyper reef 100 gen 2 along with the controller on sale. Now im kinda lost on to what to program the lights too and how long and was just wondering if Simone has experience with this setup. My tank is zoa heavy and I’ve got some Euphyllia. I’ve had it for about a month and feels a though i might have the lighting up a little to strong
 
If it was me, I would start the light at about 40%. I use this light on a 32 gallon, that is a very strong light for a 13.5. You may need to rent a par meter to get the light dialed in correctly.

I was able to rent one and have a picture with all my par reading I’ll attach. To me it just seems very blue. And tank has changed a good bit and gotten healthier. I was about to fight a nuisance algae outbreak right after this
