One will get you by, two would be ideal. Make sure they’re dimmableDo you think i need 1 or 2 of them for my tank?

See I saw my best growth at 80/20 mine are only 9 inches off the water those settings were great when growing sps but I lost them due to zero phosphates,cyano, stn. Then I slightly rescaped and have lps right below the light and have turned it down to 50/3. I dont know what par they are as dont have a meter but would love to know what just blues are par wise at different settings.I think about 12-13 inches above and started them at 50% blue and 10 white and slowly upped them to 80/25
At 60/20 the top of my tank was mid 300 and bottom of tank was 150See I saw my best growth at 80/20 mine are only 9 inches off the water those settings were great when growing sps but I lost them due to zero phosphates,cyano, stn.

quick question how do you test that sort of stuff?At 60/20 the top of my tank was mid 300 and bottom of tank was 150
I rented a pat meter from my local clubquick question how do you test that sort of stuff?
ah okay gotchaI rented a pat meter from my local club
That's cool but here in the uk clubs are few and far between.I rented a pat meter from my local club
Thanks, how tall is your tank ? As those readings are about where you want them can I ask why you went higher to 80/25, or did the blue not put the par up much more.At 60/20 the top of my tank was mid 300 and bottom of tank was 150
Thank is a standard 75 gal so I think 24” tall. And I just wanted to up it some more as I talked to other reefers about their settings. I need to recheck it honestly.That's cool but here in the uk clubs are few and far between.

That's cool. I just like to know what people are running these lights at. I think for the price they are very good.Thank is a standard 75 gal so I think 24” tall. And I just wanted to up it some more as I talked to other reefers about their settings. I need to recheck it honestly.
sorry for bringing back a dead thread but i was trying to find budget lights so i can grow coral in my 75
does anyone have a recommendation?
You're correct they will grow corals. I was thinking of adding a t5 to supplement the light what would you recommend colour wise.The viparspectras will grow coral but you really should add some supplemental t5 to provide your corals with full spectrum lighting.
