Ive just got 2 SMATFARM G3's over my 40 breeder, and wonder if anyone has any recommended settings for these. I have lps and soft coral, but the default settings on the light look way too bright for me, i dont want to fry anything.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Right now I have it set A-5% B-45% C-45%. Tank is soft and leathers
 
I don’t have the G3 mine has more channels in short over 54 corner that’s about 30” wide and 30” deep I’m running white at 30 and blues at 40 and red and green at 6. Using Photone app to estimate par

I have the same lights but instructions are confusing to me… lights are all set up all I have to do is plug them in… that’s where am confused… I have 4 lights ….1 will be the master.. that’s where am at
