Good afternoon all - would really like to hear complete reviews / pics / videos on the sb reef pro 32 . Thanks in advance !!!
 
I have nothing negative only positive. I like the strength, coverage and color of these units. It is very simple to use and set up. They have exceeded my expectations. They have out performed my Radions in every category that is important to me.

What is your lighting schedule and intensity on both channels ? Thanks
I just made several changes at once. [I know, major no-no]. When I had one 32" unit I had the blues at 100% and the whites at 50%. I changed to Blues 75% and whites about 60% and the corals seem to love it.

When I added the second 32" unit, I dialed them back to 60% blues and 45%whites. I have not borrowed a par meter to tell what par I am now at. Hopefully this weekend I will bring one home.

The lights come on at 11;30 am and go off at 8:30 pm. Just on and off, all at once, and nothing else.

So no ramping like moon then blue then white? just full on for about 9 hours ? Ever run into any algae issues or bleaching
 
I ve been using the basics over my 65 gallon for a year and a half and love them. My lfs uses the 32" over their frag tanks and awesome 560 gallon display. Seriously great lights for the money.

No ramping at all. Just like Metal Halide lights have done for years. On and off. Algae issues I have are because of import not lighting. I am a believe in basics, not buzzers and bells. Some people value those features but I do not. I want simple to use and good for the corals.
