50 cube, 24-24-20, 8 month old tank, 2 Radion g4 xr15, currently using sps ab, max 25 percent intensity.

Have about 10 acros in now I’ve had for 2 weeks. My tank will be high nutrient, many fish, may be too high all said and done. Will do 10 gallon water changes (about 25 percent of total watermelon volume)

Should I be gearing up to blast corals with light intensity wise, being it is and will be higher nutrient load? Previously in bigger tanks, I ran 8 to 8.5 alk, should I be creeping towards 9.5/10, being there will be more nutrients?

I guess I’m looking for a gameplan to work for . Knowing it’s small tank, with many fish, and will have more nitrate and p04.

Only have sps, not interested in lps.
 
Bumped it up to 40 today. Is that a good point, or is that still to weak?
