I have an SBReeflights SBOX 16 Basic (also 165W led). It's mounted 10'' above the water level of my 13'' deep IM Nuvo Fusion 20. I run the whites at the lowest setting (10%) and blues at 30% as was suggested by the manufacturer. I have a mixed reef tank with some sps and lps and everything seems to like that light level.
