So like the title says, I am switching lights. I know the G5s just came out but I will likely be running the AB program. I was just looking for any tips or advice for switching lights after my corals have been under the Hydras for a year now. I assume take it easy on the intensity but any other insight would be appreciated.

Well Congrats!!

I think BRS rents par meters, so you could read your HD's and match the G5s in par, to get a starting point.

I switched from hydra 52s to the radions best thing I ever did. what a difference in color, spread and par readings.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
