Yes, I sent him an email great idea thanks
No, it will ramp up and down just like in the great barrier reef, but it will do so by your local time. If sun rises at 6am or something in the great barrier reef, it will start at 6am at your local time.

I'm looking to increase the intensity of my light. Do you guys typically use the acclimation feature of the controller when you make a change?

If you want to make an adjustment it is much easier to make adjustments and see what is going on with the lighting. It looks like it also does more.

Hello everyone. I'm new to the site and I've been reading a lot of the posts on the AI Hydras and I feel like this maybe the place to get some answers since I can't get them anywhere else.
I filled my 125 gallon reef early in September. over the next 3 months I have filled it with the following fish:
Yellow Tang
Atlantic Blue Tang
2 Bengali Cardinal Fish
Cleaner Wrasse
Yellow Corus Wrasse
Foxface Rabbit fish
Koran Angelfish
Royal Dottyback
Mandarin Goby
My current corals are:
Hammer
Alveopra
Yellow Hammer
Frog Spawn
Branching Frog Spawn
Zoanthids
I have been trying to get corals going in my tank now for about 2 months now and I am having troubles getting them adapted. My current setup is I have a 55 gallon sump running a 15 gallon refugium, dual reactor running GFO & Carbon, 3 Hydra LED Lights 8 1/2 inches from the water, Diablo 150 protein skimmer, 2 mp40 pumps, 4 stage RODI water system, and 125 pounds of Pucanni Live Rock. All of my equipment was bought brand new. After doing a lot of troubleshooting, test kits, ect. I've come up with my lighting intensity is not right. I called AI and talked to Justin & their reef expert Joel. Joel told me that my intensities were too low and I needed to ramp them up. He had me set whites at 80% DB at 80% UV he turn off for the time being, and then rest between 40 and 50. Then he setup coral acclamation over the next month at 30 percent. My corals did not like that at all. They closed up even tighter than they were before and I'm still trying to recover. Right now I have everything pretty low. My highest percentage is 40 % on DB and RB. My whites are not getting higher that 12% and I have them only schedule to be on for 4 hours of the day. My corals are doing much better. I was just curious if anybody else was running AI Hydras that has had this experience, or if there were was anybody else running AI Hydras with a softy reef tank seeing thats all I have in my tank right now. I would appreciate any information I can get on intensities of the AI Hydras. Thanks

The only I have seen was from a post on this thread. Check out post 245-250 or so. One of the members shared some of his par readings.
