Kessil a360we / 60 gallon rimless

[Miguel1]

Iam new at it, I have a 60 gallon tank 24x24x24 with a kessil a360we with goose neck. If any one knows what light/time Setting should it be on. I’m losing some of my hard corals because of my light setting. What time should it start and what time should it end on remote settings? Please and thank you.

Kessil A360X Lighting Schedules Thread

Just got my 360x hooked up today for a test run. I have been running the 360we for 1.5 years now over a 40 cube. I’m getting ready for a new build with a reefer 625 xl and have been debating between Kessil A360x and Ecotech XR15. I have liked the color and of course the shimmer on the Kessil but...

On a tank that size you should have 2 Kessils. I have a 65gal similar in size & run 2. attached is my lighting schedule and color/intense settings via apex

I had Kessil on my 29g biocube, my torches and zoas loved it, but my SPS never grew. Changed MH and they just took off. Kessils are not good for SPS.

Kessils have been doing pretty good, over here.

I measured the par under kessils it was puting out 250-280 right under the lamp that was about 10 inches from the water. As I moved away from the center the PAR dropped drastically.

I have 2 Kessils on my 65 and SPS grow like weeds. A single Kessil will only cover a 24" square and about 18" deep. My 120 has 3 Kessils and SPS are doing great.

My red planet stayed like this for 6 months under kessil and one month under halide. Colors under kessil was way better though.

I run my Kessil 360we at 100% intensity and 0 color(as in no blue at all). I don't ramp it. Just on and off at those settings for 10 hours a day. SPS are growing good under it.
