Hey guys I have a Red Sea Reefer 200XL and I have a AI 32 hydra for it but I don’t know what lighting to use I would like some kind of blue look to make the coral color pop out. It’ll be mostly a LPS dominated tank maybe some SPS but all the way in the top. I would greatly appreciate it to get some settings ideas for the tank

Definitely check out the BRS light setting recommendations on their YouTube channel for a 60 gallon cube. Almost exactly your tank size. That will give you recommended light settings and mounting height as well as par readings.

I did but I didn’t like the way my lights looked with the recommended settings

I would just adjust the white channel lower or higher depending on what you like and just keep the blue/violet/uv where they recommend as a start.

If you lower the whites, just boost the blues a little bit more to off set the par difference if you want to stick to similar par.

Or just rent a par meter. If you adjust drastically.
