Ocean Revive T247 Questions

[Arruna]

hello everyone!

Looking for some advice on my lights. I have a 150gal: 2'L X 5'W X 2'D mixed reef (or thats the plan) tank. I had 2 Ocean Revive T-247 lights but one recently broke so I am getting a T247-B to replace it.

So I will have 1 T-247 and 1 T-247-B.

My questions: What numbers do you run each of the channels with? How long do you keep your Blue (Ch1) and White (CH2) on for?

Thanks!

The OR fixtures are pretty good. I ran my whites at 50% for 6 to 8 hours at midday and the blues for an extra 4 hours. Sometimes 2 hours before and after the whites, and sometimes 1 hour of sunrise and 3 hours of sunset (for my viewing pleasure). Blues run at 80% to 90% and are on when the whites are on as well.
