Hi guys,

I have a pair of Red Sea LED90s to run my Red Sea 425Xl reef which has marine fish, soft coral and SPS corals.

I was wondering what kind of light schedule I should be using? I have attached a photo of my current settings let me know your thoughts please?

That schedule appears fine, but only PAR meter will be able to truly tell you. Give everything a few weeks to adjust and see how it goes. Pay attention to browning/ bleaching in your SPS and look at what the Polyp Extension is during different parts of the light schedule and go from there. That is the easiest method if you cannot get your hands on a PAR meter.
