New Here

[ReefNerd76]

Hey everyone, I've been Reefing for 7 months now and am having a hard time and need advice, so I came here. I have a 10 Gallon Nano Reef Tank with a 10 Gallon Sump. I use Red Sea Coral Pro Salt and Salifert testing kits. Here is my tank and light and sump.

I hope to get to know all of you and make new friends.

Awesome and thank you. My first question can you lead me into the right direction to find out how high above the water my type of light should be?

List what light you are using, how old it is. Someone will chime in. Also a par meter to measure the amount of light in your tank also comes in handy. If you plan on keeping corals and such.

Where should I post this info?

I'm actually not familiar with that light, but it appears, at least in the picture, you're getting good coverage. Not talking about spectrum or PAR however. Is the light controllable? Dimmable?

No , only day and night settings

Probably a good time to start a build thread here:
