Dual fluval 3.0

[Chad Sepulvado]

I purchased two fluval 3.0 marines. At 12” the output is just over 200 pal at 12”. Each light is a 25k 59 watt. Wondering if this is satisfactory for growth from my following corals:

Duncan, scolymia, zoanthid, Blastomussa, and acan.

Also I have a squamosa at 10” from the top.

One last thing, I also noticed that if I manually turn on my lights they are much brighter than the sunny reef setting preloaded into the lights, even though the settings state they are 100% output at the sunny reef setting.

the light will grow coral ive had the 1.0 and have the 4.0. The problem I found is that the white light is a cool white and produces a windex effect. My reds look brown and rust colored.

To fix the issue I bought some t5ho. That helped a lot.
