I received my Reef Radiance Lumentek Pro 120 a couple weeks and programmed it using the http://williamwulfken.com/wp-wwulfke...y-Program.xlsx recommendations which have the blues peak around 50% and white/color around 30%. My tank is a 38 gal Innovative Marine and is 19" deep. The light hangs about 11" above the tank. Currently I have a mixture of zoas, hammer, torch, acans, favia, chalice, duncan, and one acro. Given the tank depth and resident live sock, does 50%/30% seem like a good peak brightness? My eyes seem think a 80%/50% might be a reasonable peak. Thanks any thoughts and recommendations. Also curious what settings are working for others.
 
Your using the 10min 12hr schedule right?

This is just my opinion, new to LED's. But I'm running the 30min 8hr schedule. Pretty much the same corals as you. All my corals came from under T5HO. So far they are doing great. I'm being cautious. Starting out low. These lights are powerful, do not go by your eyes :) It's hard I know-lol. But acclimation is the key!

80/50 seems a bit much to start with.
