Hey guys

I am a huge blue and fluorescent light fan.
I love it when the corals do really pop and shine and look fluorescent.

So the AB+ is just too white for me..

I was wondering id someone actively is using the Radiant Color Template?

Does that template really work for growth and health of SPS Corals?

And do I need to turn down the intensity for so much blue and UV?

I am using it for a 18“ cube on 10“ above surface.

I thought maybe 60% is enough?

I run 2 XR15 pros on my tank. 8 inches above the water and tank is 22 deep. I run the AB plus program but tuned down the whites to 20%. I like the softer blue look too. I run 75% schedule now and SPS seem ok so far but only about 1.5 months on them.

I was wondering the same thing, I love the look of the radiant color template! Did you end up using that setting? If so any pros or cons?
