Anyone else having trouble going above 60% with theirs? I've been acclimating my corals for more than a month now and I can tell above 60% lots of my LPS will retract due to light, even those at the bottom.

Hi @Krully & @Cunning_plan ... did either of you figure this out?

I've also noticed that anything above 60% causes my corals to start getting upset.

Currently running Blue @ 60% and White @ 20% for an 11 hour period with a 1 hour ramp up and 1 hour ramp down.

TIA for any info that might help!

I ran my blues at 100% for 10 hours a day till fairly recently when I added a new anemone. When I turned them down to 60% absolutely everything looked happier than I'd seen in ages. As such I've just left it there.

I feel like this is a case where red sea really could have done better with the profiles they set to be honest...

hey there,

I managed to get above 60% by increasing very very slowly and only having them peak at 100% for a few minutes after which they start to ramp down. I've done some kind of weird manual profile with a steady ramp up and down to and from 100%. Whites peak at 50% but average around 30%.
