Setting up my XR15’s

[Sobo's Reef]

Anyone recommend a good preset for my 120g? I’ll be doing a mixed reef, softies, lps and SPS. Thanks!!

Most people with any SPS seem to gravitate towards the AB+ setup:

I can’t for the life of me figure this out... when I “Preview” the schedule they don’t match but they have the same percentages for every time stamp

Helpppppp

All you have to do is load template, coral lab then select AB+ and write it to your lights. It will automatically automatically select the proper values. When you hit preview it starts from midnight and runs through a 24 hour cycle so it will take some time before you see it actually turning on and running. I would keep the same amount of runtime for the setting but adjust the start and stop to what you want.

When it writes and calculates the values is it based upon the tank dimentions you put in?

That’s what it’s supposed to do. I still bump my max brightness a little more. I do get some light spill but it doesn’t bother me when I do.
