I have a 75 gallon tank that has been setup for a few years. I mainly have softies, and bunch of acans. Wondering what intensity to set-up my new Kessils?

Old lights were reefbrites I sold here and have to ship out in the morning. I am just wondering where I need to keep these bad boys without cooking my coral.

Thanks

I've got two on my 75g. I ramp them up for 4 hrs to 62%, stay there for 4 hrs then ramp down for 4 hrs. I'm getting great PE on everything from sps to lps to zoas. i've got some birdsnest, blasto's, acans, zoas and a clam.

Thanks for the replace Jimbo. Its really tough to get it right daily adjusting by hand. I believe a controller is in my near future but I was holding out in hopes the Kessil controller will be out soon. I found 75% intensity and color at about 10 o'clock works great for day. Anything night I put around 50-65% intensity and color pegged to the left.

Thank you for your response. It gave me a good starting point.
