AI hydra 26 lights-RS E170 lighting for a nem

[Susan Edwards]

I'll be adding a beautiful and huge rainbow BTA to a 45g AIO Red Sea tank as soon as no3 is down! I need imput on a good light schedule. Right now, it is in my RS 3xl900 tank, in an acclimation box (with an additional wavemaker to make it happy). I'm running RS 160s 90%blue, 40% white. I figure that is in the 20k to 23k range (per them: 100/50=20k and 100/10=23k)

right now I have the HD26's at:
UV 74
V 74
RY 74
B 77
G 10
R 10
CW 50

I'd like to be close to what the nem currently has. He's about 4" from surface. Lights about 12-14 above

They are in the app under presets ( light-edit-preset )

 

[Susan Edwards]

Sorry, I am just trying to go from memory, my Ipad is on the charger if you can't find it let me know. I don't know what zigzag times are.

It was just the picture of the light schedule I found online. All the up and downs. Hope I can find it as no way can I dup this lol's

Do you have the light on as long as this?

 

[Susan Edwards]

hope the image shows up above

Yes the whole thing loads, so you do not have to put this in yourself. Using 2 fingers, you can change the time/start-stop and the overall intensity. Put two fingers on either side of the chart and you can slide the image of the zigzag around and make it bigger or smaller. Sunrise in my tanks start around 7am and sunset is at 5-6 pm. The reason for the spikes/ zigzags is a period of high intensity followed by a less intense session. almost if a cloud has passed overhead

I don't have any presets other than what I've used. I went to edit and only saw the 1 for this tank and the 1 for my fuge. Do I have to somehow download the preset to the app? I'm using android

Okay, that got it! Thanks. I managed to move it over to start earlier and will leave it set later as it looks like it goes way down. Thanks again!
