Lol no one knows they have been promising it for 3yrs.
I still think the vetex is a very well made led with little to no issues just
Over priced for not having up to date colours and control

just set up my hydras last night. Going to go with gregrock79's formula for now and see what happens. I have mixed sps and Lps that were under sols until yesterday. I have them set for a 30% acclimation. Do you think that it is neccesary after coming from sols or will uv and red/green have an aeffect?

Yes i would - due to the extra colours and optics - my vertex leds were very powerful but lacking. The hydra's are very strong and noticeably brighter.
it does not hurt to acclimate - tougher to come back from bleaching

Just as a benchmark...had ai hydra on my nuvo 38 for at least 6 months now. I am running them at 76% across the spectrum. I had a pink birds nest for the first year or so and it did not do much under the IM strip lights. It has exploded since I added the hydra along with a birds of paradise and screaming green. I also purchased a lot of 13 acros/montis from a fellow reefer about two months ago and they are encrusting and growing well with a few exceptions not caused by the light. Not long enough for me to call it an overwhelming success, but I am satisfied so far. I also have a large LTA that is thriving. LPS are happy too. Feel free to ask any questions about my setup. I followed reef central for 2 years and feel like it is time to contribute. Lol.

Joey, get everything set up ok? Controller or director? We're you able to delete my info from director without having to call ai?

Yea was a little disappointed in the director being in beta testing still. I would like to suggest joe you stick with it - they seem to update regularly. Once i got the hang of it the control ability it is far superior to the controller or other systems I have seen and used.
I will be extremely happy if they add android, and improve cloud sweep.
going to try out the geo location this week end.

I am a little disappointed there hasn't been an update to the director yet. I definitely want to see a "no later than" option for lightning the way it is in the controller. Had lighting go nuts in my house the other night after lights out and Naso tang went ballistic.

I had to Email and gave the S/N and they switched it over no problems very simple.
