Red Sea LED do not fluoresce

[bobnicaragua]

Anyone else notice corals don't fluoresce with Red Sea LEDs?

Bump.

Mine do on moonlight, but I had to crank it up to get it.

I pulled my LED 50s down and went back to kessil a80s between my t5s.

I miss the controlability and power, but it's worth it for good fluoresce and shimmer.

MohrReefs,

Did you get your daytime light to fluoresce by adding in moonlight or only the moonlight alone?

MohrReefs,

It can run along your daylight but I just set it up for night time viewing for me personally. If theres natural light where your tank is you may not see as vibrant of a pop. Give it a change and see if the moonlight with daylight helps.

What % are you running your lights at?

The Red Sea LEDs are no longer over my tank, but I plugged one in and tried mixing in moonlight (purple) with the blues. It didn't make much of a difference as far as I could see.

mine pop pretty well. Using the 50’s
Maybe I just think that because these are the best lights I’ve owned.
