What should I set my Radions to?

[gold_gla55]

I have an innovative marine 30 gallon with two xr15 Radions with the Radion brackets. My question is what's the best light setting??

I have various corals everything from zoas frogspawn and torches to sps and anemones

Thanks in advance

Check out the new graphs ecotech released. I like them

It's been a minute since I linked up to a computer will they be there automatically or is it a separate download?

I keep my radion Gen 2 at 75% in a thirty inch deep tank. Most of my lps corals are on the sand bed to slightly elevated off the bottom. Lights are hanging nine inches from the water line. Hope this helps you.

It's tricky - i have to keep my 30's at about 40%. They're 12in above my 24in deep tank and I was getting some bleaching at 50%. I'm going to try and ease them up a bit but I think the overlapping positioning of the lights led to some really hot zones.

I'd start low and work you way up depending on the lighting needs of what you've got in there.

There are a lot of good charts you can find online that give you a good schedule.

I have the same question, using 2x XR30 for 2' deep tank. Light is mounted with the Multi RMS mount.

What color spectrum to use using the Kelvin? my LFS said 20K color, at eco Smart live, seems for high coral growth, they use 12k color.

I only see preset color spectrum at ESL, whete else we can find the graph? Right now I am setting with 10 hrs photoperiod at 50% and change period with 12K and 20K color

The most important thing to be aware of is the intensity slider. This controls the power of the LED's on such a shallow tank it would best to stay in the 25 to 30 % intensity setting.
If you can get access to a Par meter they your local club or LFS I would suggest using it so you no where to place your coral.
Here is my schedule you can load it an try it out.

Here's a picture of my current set up. I'm using the growth setting from Radion at about 60%
