I’ve had my light for about 2 months now. This is a new tank. I’ve attached a graph representation of my current photo period. All my corals seem healthy and happy. But growth seems really slow, which I didn’t expect with the ATI hybrid.

210 gallon display
75 gallon sump
35 gallon refugium
Triton system
0 ammonia/nitrite/nitrate
9.5 Alkalinity
440 Cal
1300 magnesium

Fish are happy. I have a magnifica anemone that loves the light. I’ve only had the corals for a month and a half. How long does it take for the plugs to become encrusted?

I used had a hybrid for years not having the schedule anymore but a good friend of mine still has a copy of it I believe.
@PSXerholic he can help you out.
 
For coral growth I have found that alk over 8, CA over 400 and the main factor is spot feeding your corals. Mine grow like weeds if I spot feed a minimum of 3x per week. Love reef roids and goniapower.
