Led Colors/Percentages for Refugium

[GKorals]

So I just plumbed in a refugium to my tank and have an AI Prime over it. Have some algae in there and plan on adding different kinds soon. Any idea of types of colors and how strong I should have them set at for optimal growth? Thanks in advance

irrelevant question where did you get that clip for the turkey baster?

What's the best color mix and intensity to pull off that spectrum? There isn't any presets in light that I know of

An AI prime has blues and whites I'm assuming? I would aim for all the whites at 50% to start with blues 10%, ramp up from there and let me know how it goes. My refugiums are now on PC's 6000k bulbs. I have been thinking of switching to LED's to see if it's better.

Well it actually has more than just that. I know that red and greens contribute to algae growth so I wanted to get a good mixture specifically aimed for growing macro algae.

Ai primes have an option where you can choose the spectrum in kelvin
