AI Hydra 32 question

[Batman222b]

I have 2 AI Hydra 32s over my 75 gallon mixed reef tank. I notice that my zoa's are stretching for light. I've been running the Saxby schedule for over a year. Was thinking about going to Deadlights 70%. What would be the drawback? I'm using the Deadlights schedule on a small frag tank I have with an AI 16. I see better growth in the small tank that I do in my large. Thanks for the input.

Hydra 32s are weak and complete crap the Bluetooth isn’t incredibly unreliable and running mine at 100% and I’m getting 150 par in the top of my tank.

The hydra do seem to be on the weaker end for par (though should still be sustainable. I’m not sure what the schedules are that you’re running but if coral seem to be stretching for light, I’d gradually increase the percentage of light. Also maybe grab a par meter (if available to rent) to see what your numbers are

Thanks. I like the light. I get good growth and think it's my program. I switched and am getting better growth. Would like to add a 3rd light.
