Kessil users, drop in a video of your tank (without any supplemental light) with the dimensions of the tank, number of lights and the model, lighting period and the setting and schedule of the light if possible. Kind of debating between kessils and Radions. The shimmer might just be why I get the kessils instead of Radions!

Here is an older video, but I have a whole youtube channel featuring a few tanks with Kessil only lighting. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
 
Here is the light schedule for that tank.

Where do u have ur color set at and what's the schedule for the color?
The color can be set to whatever pleases your eye. Kessil lights have Kessil Logic. That means that no matter what color it looks like to you, it will maintain a spectrum that will grow coral. I run a medium blue schedule that starts off at 10% white at dawn, goes to 20% white from noon to 4 pm, then gradually tapers down to 0% white with 100% violet for an awesome sundown florescence. Then to 0% on all channels for nighttime with moonlight for 2 hours.

Great corals man. Love how the system is no-nonsense. I have two of the a360s going over my 1 foot tall 36x12" tank.
If that becomes not enough, I'll drop the a500 bomb on them. I love the kessils with nothing.
Where in Michigan are you?

You only go to 50 percent? That's surprising, but maybe not.
