      light schedules post here!

      What's everyone white/blue/special light schedules?

      If you could let us know what inhabitants you have as well please ( SPS/LPS/Zoa's/softy? )


      I've got a nano tank running an aquamaxx prism cc and i'm considering stepping outside the sample settings they provide. I hear 6 hours of white a day is enough but I have to imagine that was made in context with a specific coral type. Thanks in advance and hopefully this generates some good feedback

      -Tony

      p.s.
      I've got a lps/zoa tank. Not planning to house SPS. recommendations welcomed

      wow your whites are at 24%... i was running my whites at 100% based off the samples and now i'm running at 70%. I"m use to T5's where you turn them off or on. these percentage strengths are a learning experience for me with LED's. sounds like i should be bringing down my white's %. I know corals prefer the 12K spectrum (blue's etc) I just wasn't really sure with LED's since I've always had T5's before.

      I'm getting the black AI Prime for Christmas so thank you for sharing this.

      I am running a modified AB+ schedule which many people have had great success with. heres the article on the facility that developed the radion AB+ schedule. It's made for the radions but you may be able to tweak your lights to something similar though it may be hard without a meter to measure it.
