Thinking of sps ab+ 50% to 100% in 2 weeks, ok?
Thanks

Very nice looking tank!
Can you get your hands on a par meter? I am not familiar with the gen 1's but the 4's are very powerful with the different diffusers on them. they also have different channels with will make it easier to change the spectrum. Less is better when it comes to acclimation so if you can't get a par meter then your plan might be the safe one...

Wow awesome colors. I'll be curious to hear your thoughts on the upgrade. I have a gen 2 pro and I'm considering upgrading my light, the g4 pro is one of lights I'm thinking about. Have you already bought the light? If so how are you liking it so far

Hello,
so gen4 and gen3 were on acclimation mode for 2 weeks and I hope it has work because my ecosmartlive keep telling me the lamps are on day 1 of acclimatation...

Really love theses 2 lamps, very bright and of course you can see difference of intensity between gen 3 and Gen4 pro.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
