Hey guys need some help what is a good percent for 4 rations XR30 gen 2 on a 48x20x21 tank?
I had then on the AB+ set to 70% but it start to to bleach my frags. I have the pmk and it showed my par at 300. my radio have tir lens.
 
Personally have not had radions but had a couple different aqua illumination fixtures currently the prime hd and starting at a lower percent and slowly ramping up to the higher percentage works best until you find the point where everything seems happy. Also keep in mind when adding new frags what lighting they are coming from and either starting them on sand bed or lowering the percentage temperarily. Leds are very powerful I see lots of people running radions at only 50%.
 
I would back down from 70% to @60% and let your tank settle down. The gradually, like 2% every 2 weeks until you get to 70%. I pushed my lights too quick and burnt up a lot of corals. If you do the mentioned, your tank should come back. Be patient, it takes a while. JME
