Lighting schedule and % recommendations

MacieKnis · Oct 8, 2023

I have a RedReef LED 90 currently on a Oct T60 (32 gallon). It is programmed at 100% blue and 10% white. Can someone tell me if thats too much blue? Not enough white?
What’s a good ratio? Or a good general setting?
Right now I just have a toadstool coral but would like to get a hammer coral soon.
At night it goes to about 8% moon from 7pm to 6am and ramps to sunrise.
Thanks!

Here's a thread that might give you a few ideas.

Share your RedSea ReefLED Lighting Schedule/Program (Reefbeat App)

Hey all! I know these ReefLED lights from Red Sea are very new, and the Reefbeat software that controls it is even newer, but there's really not a lot of info I can find on how to best program the light settings and balance. I'm sharing my current lighting schedule and would love to see...

you should be fine, you had ur blues and white near close. Make the adjustment instantly and it shouldn’t affect the toadstool at all.
