I want some ideas to run my reef breeders. What do you run them at, for how long do you run your lights. Thank you in advance. Ps. Can I see a picture of your reef?

I try to match the following sps schedule that Logan posted on the Reef Breeders website. However I have my lights maxed out around 60% and have more blues than white spectrum. I start my lights at 0800 hours and ramp slowly to a peak around 1500 hours and back off at 0900.

I have had excellent growth with my corals both SPS,LPS and softies. All my corals started as frags and have grown into small colonies.
