When I try just changing the color and leaving the intensity at 100 and just changing the overall intestiy of 45%. It looks like its gonna be way to strong on the graph.

I don't understand what you are trying to do.
I would give EcoTech a call.

I was just unsure whether to adjust the intenstity on each point or on the entire graph

Once you set the overall intensity, then it's good.
You can set different color points in the graph and it remains at the intensity that you set earlier.

I like T5 lighting. With that tank I would do a 8 bulb. Get a Ati sunpower with ati bulbs.5 blue plus and 3 coral plus you will be able to grow and color up acros any where in the tank. You won't regret it. You could get away with a 6 bulb but 8 would cover whole tank.

So by the looks of it I think I just need to change my lighting schedule and maybe just switch back to dosing since I cant get kalk to drip fast enough to keep up with my tank without filling up my sump.

So if you set the overall intensity at 75 percent then go and turn say the greens up to 100 percent, Does that mean the Greens will acually be at 75?Iv been trying to figure that out lol still new to programming them myself

Thats what I was thinking DSP but their is also another intesity adjust to the right of all the color adjusters

Raise salinity which will in turn raise the calcium

When you get into specific technical questions it's probably best to contact EcoTech.
I can navigate around ESL fairly good, but that's about my level of skill in it.
