Hello I have two xr30 pros gen 6 that turn on at 11 am and turn off 9pm I’m running the blues at 100% the whites at 10 % then goes down to 6% red and green are 5% and uv 45% violet at 75%. I’ve got a hammer and a few torches, some goniopora, zoas, and polyps. My question here is this a fine schedule is there sometbing I’m missing? The schedule is set to 52% it is a 24 inch tall tank.
 
I had my lights on from 7:30am and off at 10:30pm, but only stay at the peak for around 6 hours. It is better to get/rent a par meter to measure your light intensity, just based on these numbers it is impossible to know if it is good or not.
 

WHAT KIND OF SUBSTRATE ARE YOU RUNNING ON YOUR TANK?
