Ai Vegas. D Chalices

[reef4beer]

I installed my Vega about a month ago and I'm recently having issues with my chalices.

A couple are Browning out. Anyone had this issue?

Initially ran my whites at 25% now dropped to 15% and running for 2 hours only.

Running my blues at 80% red and green at 60.

I had same problem. How deep is the tank and how high are they above the sand?

After about 7 months I am at 15 on white reds and greens. And 35 on all of the blues. I have a jason fox avatar that is doing fine under them now. My light is 24" from the sand and the tank is 9" deep.

65 gallon tank so its tall and running only one Vega unit. Moved it down about 2 weeks ago down to the sand bed and kept turning brown.

I also initially moved another chalice down when I got the lights and that one turned completely brown.

I have my lights on my canopy so its about 8 inches of the water and the measurement of the tank height I believe is 22

Everything else doing ok? I had two chalices that did not like the change from the t5 to vega. A lot of them really do like low light and may just need extra acclimating time to the leds?

Everything else is doing great.

Going to have to drop the percentages some. Either way I brought them to my job to leave them under the t5s for a while see if they get better.
