I have 2 Hydra 32s for my 65g tank. I currently only have 2 damsel fish while I cycle.
Can someone , anyone, help me determine what setting I should have my lights at? Right now I have 2hr ramp , sunrise at 10a, sunset at 7p (off at 9p),and moonlight till 12a. Here are the color settings when on: UV 0, cool white 10, blue 70, royal 70, violet 65, red 5 and green 5.
R these ok for a mixed reef? What should the moonlight be set to? Do I need to add any of the colors to the moonlight setting?
TIA
 
No colors on the moonlight. Just pick 1 blue and set it for 1% .
I would run some uv 30..35 % and up the whites to about the same.
 
If you are new to the hobby and reef lighting I would recommend running on the the presets on the color wheel, 15-20k will be good for all coral. PAR meter will be needed to adjust the intensity correctly for your setup. A proven spectrum is the AB+ settings, BRS has a video on how to setup the Hydra for AB+. This is the setting I will be using once I get my 32 HDs setup. As for the moon lighting either dont use it or just turn on the luner mode and it will run on its own.
