Steve,

I love the fact you have 8 bad boys over your tank.
There can be other factors for some of the corals being bleached or light in color.
Looking at your schedule I must say you using too much stage points.
Also with 14" above the surface of the water and you run only 35% you might bring back the White leds to max 50% or lower and increase the intensity slowly to 50%.
Take your time on this, say increase 1% everyday.
Green and red can be also increased a bit to 90% for both.
That should be easy as I see you run a reeflink as all your light as setup wireless.

Please send me your schedule? No frags needed. [email protected]

What about the percent of green and red lights?? I heard those grow algae quicker or something? Is this true? What is the highest percent you keep your red and green lights?

I run my reds at 40% max at 65% brightness. My greens max out at 20% at 65% brightness.

Two hours for me, from 12-2PM. I try to base it on the sun's cycle.

Radion Pro Gen 2. 4 of them over my tank. 32 inches deep and the lights are 10 inches above the water. Max intensity is 75%. Growth is fantastic and I'm getting really good coloration on my SPS and LPS. Using 14k to ramp up and down, then 10k at my max then a little 20k at the end of the day.

The concept here is to use 14K for most of the day so I get a little better coloration and I blast the corals with that high intensity 10K for 3 hours a day for growth.
