Hey all, I got a Reefer 450 Deluxe which comes with 3 AI Hydra HD Lights that suspend them about one foot over the water line. Im curious to know what fellow reefers running the Hydra lights are running their settings at. Attached I have pictures of the tank as well as the lighting schedule I've been running for about 3 or so months

Here is a link to a whole collection of settings on AI’s website. Choose the one you like (or download them all and try). FYI, I didn’t like Saxby as whites are too strong, he runs them at 45% or smth in that range. In the meantime, I now run modified AB+. Here is a screenshot. Everything at max, red and green at 5% and white at 15%.

Thank you, Butuz. I am fairly new to the hobby and have been shying away from touching my light settings due to how sensitive to light I've heard corals to be. Would you say my lights are set significantly lower than the average hobbyist? I know strange question but don't really have any friends in the hobby. thanks for your feedback
