Hello all,

I have an IM 30L, been up and running about 10 months now.

It's doing OKI have a maxspect razor 160W 10K.

I have played with this light for a long time, and I just don't think I have ever found the right settings.

It is LPS, soa;s, softies, and a bubble tip and 3 mini maxi carpets.

I am mostly curious about the channel balance.....blues and whites, which are what I can control.

Can I have some advice on perhaps a new starting point, and how I should go from there.

I would say my nems are all happy, my bubble, blue symposium, purple gorg, and semi-new acans are all doing very well. zoa's are all hit or miss, torch has never grown. I dose calc, alk, and mag and all stay at the lower acceptable levels.

No phosphates or nitrates as measured with API.

I have a bag of carbon, small gfo reactor, IM skimmer.

i'm assuming lighting is my issue as I have kept all other parameters in check.

here is a FTS.......any advice, lighting or otherwise, would be appreciated.

Also would ask......for a 10K fixture, with my type of stock, should the balance between whites and blues be 50/50, 60/40.......?
