Anybody running heavy white schedule with radions? Maybe little to no blue or just some blues in the evening/night? I’m a huge fan of white light and the more European style of lighting and would like to see some schedules people are running for LPs/softie dominated tanks. Post up some pics and give a little rundown of your schedule, I would mine but my tank is new and has a bacterial bloom going on so the lights are off, but was running them at 10k

White light is only for viewing pleasure and does essentially nothing for corals. It promotes nuisance algae in the system. This is why it is kept at lower intensity in the overall spectrum.

First....which Radions?
Model, color?
Tank dimensions?
Number of lights,?
All determine how much par you can afford to lose making it " white"...

Nice acros! If all ur channels for ur colors are set to 100% then it’s no longer ab+, no? I get the schedule intensity at 100%. It’s where mine is set. Xr15 g5 pro ab+ template. The templates setting isn’t all channels 100%.
