So I'm tinkering with the lights tonight and decided to try 95-100% power on just like, rb,db, and v while they individually sit at about 1-4%. Looks like better control.

I've searched but couldn't immediately see if anyone has a program up similar to this.

Good bad ?
 
I run those at 5%. Right at 3 watts.

See yeah I use apex. Forgot to mention. Looks like more control with the director. [emoji53]
 
what are all of your settings. I just purchased a 26 hd


Research and research some more. I don't know if my settings will be right for your tank. I have changed my settings about 100 times. Only you will know what is right for your tank once you have a better understanding of why and how. Read this:

It will give you an better understanding and what part of the spectrum to focus on. I do recommend you acclimate your corals to the light over a three month period.
