New Radion G5 Advice

Hey folks,

I upgraded my old Current Marine Pro Duels setup to a Radion G5 Blue. Any advice to help avoid issues would be greatly appreciated.

It would have been best to have rented an led par meter before taking down your Marine Pros, and installing your G5's as a starting point to not shock your corals, then climb up your par slightly over each week.

If you know much par you'd like after building up, then rent the BRS led par meter and write down your G5's correct settings for future reference.

I have it set for LPS/Softies and acclimating at 40% over 3 weeks. In hidesight, renting a par meter would have been smart. Got excited for my new light.
