How was your growth with those settings?
I moved on to the G5 Pro with a diffuser. I was after color more than fast growth, the G 4 worked well in both areas. On the AB+ program I stayed with 42% overall, 100% on blues and UV, whites, red and green I dialed down, especially the red and green. Also has to do with your water, watch the corals. I don’t mess with the light settings once I set it, I only increased the overall intensity to 49% and I’m watching the coral. Set it and forget it, the coral will adapt. Hope this helps.

Here’s some pics, no longer frags, both SPS and LPS, with a Gorgorian and clam thrown in.

Thanks! It's confusing at first since the BRS videos make you think the AB+ needs to be at 100% intensity to achieve 250-350 PAR at the top 6".
