Radion and Apex Fusion Programming

[oshanickreef]

so i have the fusion set up and its been I have noticed that my corals are bleaching a lot... except for the ones that love a lot of light. anyone know what i should change my graphs to?

here is the rest of the graph.

How long are the lights on?

 

[oshanickreef]

10.5 hours roughly

 

[BoxesOfTheSea]

Your graph looks like your photo period is about 13 hours. It stars ramping up at about 11 and ends its down ramp at midnight.

How high above the water are your lights?
How long have you had them?
We need more info

i changed the time to about 9 hours from the beginning of ramp up to the end. and they are maxing at 54% power. previously they were maxing out at around 65%.

my lights are about 7-9 inches off the water. they are the Gen 2 radion and i have had them for about 4 months.

I keep mine at about 50% with Apex. It turns out that this is plenty of power.

Mine are about 10-11" off the water with 120 degree lenses. I run mostly blues/uv at 100, white at about 25, green at 5 and red at 15. Overall at 80% for about 2.5-3 hours peak. I ramp up and down from that peak. Total light schedule is 12 hours. Corals are growing great. Nothing bleaching. I'd stay low on the whites and greens...bad light for sps...they are more for our eyes as opposed to what corals like. IMO.

I was a little off on my numbers...here's my graph and numbers. Been working great so far!

I am about to set mine up using fusion. If I carry over the same color parameters and percentages that I am currently using/have with ecosmart live, there should be no changes in lighting or intensity correct? It should be exactly how it is now right?
