That unit is extremely strong....I would definitely follow their advice and at least start with the lower intensity. You can slowly bring it up over time if the coral allow it. I have two Pros over a 105G that max out at about 60% overall intensity (in the 19-20K spectrum).

 

[joducus]

yes..you have right.. But I read many forums and many people run radion 90-100 % intesity on top schedule...

 

[joducus]

and I think is big difference if you have one or two (more) radions...I think if i have one over 90x50x50 tank..i need bigger intenisty than if i have two radions ?,?

Do you have wide angle or normal lens in the radion

How high over the tank do you have it

I run the preset program that ramps up then down.

 

[joducus]

30 cm above water level..and i have normal lens

One light can cover your tank with no issues. I would start low around 40% at peak and you can always raise it if needed. My tank is 24" deep and i only have it at 55% the led are high watt and have great penetration

I have 6 radion gen 3 above my 300 and run my intensity at 50% I have a lot of SPS, LPS and other corals. 3 of my lights are 9" above water and 3 are 12" above water.

Never achieve these colors and growth before, until I set the second profile, but depends what coral you will keep. You have 3 options today .
