In my opinion if you want to grow some nice coral , I'd stay/peak in the bluer side of town 400nm-500nm most high end coral vendors (wwc,Two guys coral, battlecoral)tend to peak in This spectrum. Thus the proven track record and success of ati t5 blue plus, 20k halide radiums, reef bright XHO,even actinic t5..if you want program your lights to be visually appealing (spectrum) while your home/after work (1-2 hours and then go back to bluer spectrum here's some good reference to that (skip to 5:40) https://youtu.be/iNS-clay-boaeZUI

I always use the blue spectrum, was just wondering how it transitions from one to another.

Just had a little time to play with them yesterday and now out of town but have read others say theres no transition. There's transition in intensity. Hopefully someone can confirm

I can confirm that there is no ramp, it just changes. But it's really quite a subtle diffference between each. But definitely noticeable if you happen to be looking at your tank when it changes.

Thanks, that's what I thought but wasn't sure.

I guess I don't see it. Or just not as sensitive to it.

Just got a AP700 for my reefer 250. Haven't gotten it mounted yet so I have a question I'm hoping someone can help me with. Currently I'm using 2 a160we's on the tank at a peak of 85%. If the 700 is mounted about the same height above the water like I plan to do, what % would you start at for the new light? I was thinking starting around 40% max but not sure if that will be too much or not. Anyone got an idea of what % on the 700 would compare to 85% on the 160's?

You need a par meter.

Start at 25% and let your corals get used to the light. Then bump it up till they are super happy

I did some testing with 360s, start around 30% at most

[Trey302]

Ok thanks! I set it up to top out at 30% so I'll see how everything looks and adjust from there. Might come back down to 25% just to be on the safe side. One other question, does the blue wifi light on the side blink all the time?

I got an AP700 from Dr Foster and Smith on that 25% off sale... man, a no brainer at that price!

Pretty excited about it for my new build. It's going over a RSR XL 425.

What F&S sale?

 

[ktownhero]

What F&S sale?

Unfortunately it was a brief flash sale for less than one day, so it's over.

How does warranty work with this?

Anyone know how to get the ap700s to sync with your phone time. They are off by about 5 minutes. Even if I log on and off nothing changes.
