Oh yeah, vetteguy knows a ton. You might need to tweak the %s a bit if you notice bleaching or poor coloration, but you'll probably be in a good place with that.

What are the dimensions of the tank? 10gal cube? If it is a Noopsyche Mini hanging over it with the flex arm, you are probably going to hit >300 PAR on top of rocks in the tank and 150-200 on the sand bed. It is a strong light. That'll be good for basic SPS and hardy acros, maybe need a bit more for the fancier stuff. A bit too much for some LPS and softies, so you'd dial down a tad.
13.78”L x 13.78”W x 13.78”H

60/65/15 is very strong on a 10gal cube. I would start at 50/55/15 and slowly change it from there.

I also have a 10gal cube with a K7 Mini over it. I can take some PAR measurements for you next week (it's an office tank and I won't have time till next week).
