New to R2R and New to Reefing

Michael Locke · Jun 3, 2018

I have a newly cycled 125g tank that I am trying to make into a reef tank. It will take me a while due to the extreme cost of things, but thats ok. I currently only have about 10-15 small frags, a sailfin tang, a powder brown tank, a small yellow spotted boxfish, and a snowflake eel. My biggest issue right now is trying to figure out my lighting. I have an AQL LED light with a Smart LED Controller. I am currently using the Sunny Day setting but it never really makes the corals "pop" with color. Does anyone know how to change the settings to reflect a more blue look so the corals look better?

Thanks.
