LED reef radiance

Just got mine too. Quick question for you. Do your fans constantly spin? I haven't seen mine move yet. I'm wondering if they are set to go off at a certain temp or always on
 
The fans start up at about 45c. They actually run pretty cool, unless your running them at 100% for 8hrs :) We know that isn't happening!
As for growth, how's this? Sweet!!!
I'm now using the 10min/10hr program. Max is 30/50% So far my corals are loving it!

Sweet, what kind of coral is that. I only have a torch green, Xenia, tube worm, brown/green candy cane. They are about 2 weeks old trying to look for so e growth
 
I have not seen just aww this LED light grow everything, type of acting out of my lights. With All of my water para being correct I just dont see it. I have seen some ppl say they place a hammer or torch in there tank and after about a month its growing or adding heads. Not I,
On the same note I do Like the lights I have. The program is easy to mess with on setting the % of your lights and height. Everything on the light i do like, Just cant seem to get the growth that ppl are talking about on my tank.
 
Maybe we just need to up the power to the lights. Really thinking about going 12 inches above my tank and 35% on white and 50 on blues. I already at 50 blues. I don't know though

You say your parameters are right. What are they? Please post all of them ok.
 
These para im trying to remember what they were on the 9-20-14 from work.

Cal-450
mag-1500's
alk-9.4
ph-8.2
temp-80

ammonia-0
nitrate-0
nitrite-0

phosphate test i did for 3 month came up 0.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So, with these para. should i see good growth from my corals. I have a MP10 for water flow and insump reef octopus 110.
 
HOw big of a tank? params look good. FWIW, I run mine at 70% blue and 35% white. I am growing zoas very well. My merulina I got in July is Finally turning from a dull green to a having more fluorescence. did you ever borrow a Par meter to see where you are?

if you do raise them, do so in smaller increments.
