I have been in hobby over 12 years. I am no pro but know what I am doing for the most part . I have only been on LEDs a couple years now (only had black boxes and nor reefbreeder V2s). Ever since setting up the V2s my coral has struggled. I really think it just because I cannot get the proper power %. Have done test, even doing ATI test and all showing levels are stable or where I expect them to be for mixed reef. I feed the tank frozen almost daily and spot feed at least 2 or 3 times a month. I have had very nice reefs previously. Maybe something has just been off but really traces back to LEDs. So... what power are you guys running your LEDs at and how long? I am kinda afraid to turn them up but im thinking I just keep them to low.
Tank is 27in tall, like is a good 8-10 in off water. Has 6 color channels and at peak I have the blue channels around 50%. White never more than 25% but I prefer the blue look. Reefbreeders had a chart for reference but wasn't totally helpful. Just recommends like 60% for mixed reef.... well how long? And how does that work if I do sunrise to set . Just finally tring to go all in and fix this.
