Hello,
I am looking for a good Schedule or program for a Kessil 700 for growth and color. Anyone have one that is working good for them on a mixed reef or SPS dominated tank?

Color logic insures that it all works, magic recipe is not needed, just set color to preference and time, boom Shaka boom

Careful with intensity, 50% is probable a good average for mixed reef with acclimation

Kessil Logic is the best feature the fixture has. Just pick the look you like, done.

As far as intensity you must, MUST take it slow. Start at 35% and increase only about 5% a week until about 50%. If you need more after 50, increase by 2-3% weekly. 70% is as high as I can possibly go, tried several time and only result was bleaching and scorching. These things are POWERFUL! Forget the 360s, this is not two of them put together. It's a while different beast altogether.

Thanks everyone I totally love the look of this light and I have tuned down the intensity to under 40%. I will definitely do some more playing around and see where I end up.
