I am sure this question has been asked many times

I picked up 2 XR15 gen 5 pro

I have a 48 inch 90 gallon
Heavy Sps (mini colony size pieces)
A good bit of torches and hammers

I am looking for the best color I can get out of my corals with lighting schedule,intensity, timing and color spectrum

any help would be great. I am an old school MH guy and new to LED

I am looking very forward to any suggestions on this as well. I love the lights and capabilities. I have a pro on my 20 gal AIO but I’m new to led lighting myself.

I have a 75g 4ft tank, w/ XR15 G5 Pro's x2, mounted in a Aquatic Life T5 hybrid, and this setup did not have the PAR I wanted for my SPS. I ended up adding an old G2 to get the PAR above 300 in the top half of the tank.

I would recommande something around 45-75 intensity. I shift to blue during sunrise/sunset after it goes on for all channel. 8h full channel 2h just the blue (cuz it's fun to see fluorescence)

I do not own them. However, BRS did a video on the light you are asking about. Does this help at all?

I would recommend 85%+ as I just got a par meter today and running at 70% with a reef brite my par was max 290. That was with my arm in the tank as my holder hasn’t came yet which probably blocked some light.
