Hey Ron I have a 180 that is just 26 days up and running on zeovit system. I have the same light fixture. I had it 7 inches above the water. I have lost a few frags. I am thinking the light is the cause. You have yours at 13 inches. Is that from the water or the tank.

I have 4-blue plus 2- purple plus and 2-coral plus ati bulbs. I know its not exactly like your but what do you think about coral+. Also do you have the clear splash guard on or did you remove it. So for all the question but I would die for a sps tank like yours.

coral plus I though was to yellow. the aquablue is really white. I have the splash guard on the fixture. some say to remove it to get higher par. I like to keep my reflectors like new. if I needed more par I would simply move the light down.
