Greeting all,

Was curious for those using the Photon V2+, what channel setting ratios are needed to match the 14k spectrum? I see @Reef Breeders mentioned a 50:50 blend between white and blue, but that doesn’t take into account all 6 channels. Looking for recommendations. TIA

Try setting all your blues channels to the same intensity. Then run your others channels at about 25-30% of the blue setting. That should get you closer to what you are looking for.

On the V2+, since there are 6 channels, all channels even would be about 14K. In terms of blue vs. white, you can group the three blue channels (3, 5, and 6) vs. the white channel (4) to adjust kelvin.
 

DO YOU THINK TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS ARE MORE HELPFUL OR HURTFUL TO REEFING?
