Red Sea Max E260 LED 90 lighting " what settings"?

[MAX260]

As per title, i have a Red Sea Max E260 tank with the 2 x LED 90 lights.

Reef-beat app have a few pre-set light settings, all quite different. Question is, does anyone have a preset or a manual setting for best lighting for a mixed sps / lps and zoes etc?

Thanks

Hi

My LFS said less than 10% white and 100% blue
Montis turned brown

Sorry to hear about your monti. Here is my schedule:

Coral growth is driven by the blue channel. The white channel is mostly for aesthetics. (I personally don't like a tank that blue.)
With this schedule, the PAR readings is my tank are

Given recent some shadowing from coral growth, I am planning on turning up the blue light intensity 5 to 10%.
Part of the challenge (and fun) is figuring out the best placement for any given coral, in terms of lighting and flow. The Tidal Gardens website and YouTube channel has a lot of good information regarding the

Sorry previous post got cut off:

... needs of specific corals.

Although not identical to the E260, BRS has a PAR map for a two ReefLED 90 setup in a bare tank PAR LED 90 x 2. This can give you some idea of what the PAR is like at 100%, different depths.

Because of unpredictable shadowing effects from rock and coral, it's best if you can manage PAR measurements for your specific tank. Aside from purchase, you may be able to borrow/rent one from your local reef club, LFS, or online seller.
