Share your Radion Graph!

[evo_2679]

Anybody have a graph / etg for a shallow tank ? I have a 28L x 18W x 12H tank and a G2 over it. Right now I have been running the radion program peaking @ 35% for about 4 months but I am still not getting great color on my SPS. Also if I go over 45% it starts bleaching the corals so I adjusted the peak back down to 35% around 7 weeks ago. I had better color with my Tek light 4 bulb T-5 fixture.

how high is your light from your water surface???

 

[evo_2679]

About 13" off the water surface.

Tank is 21" deep 58 gallon.
I lost everything in Nemo last winter. Just rebuilding now. I only have a stylo frag on the bottom glass right now.

I have no idea what just happened but a few of mine went white and lost all life. So reconfiguring too. I'm still wondering if my percentage might be to high.

are you seeing any bleaching on your corals now at 35%??

 

[evo_2679]

No bleaching - just some have lighter color. Some SPS are doing good but my myagi tort went from a blue base to a green base ?

ok so i thought i had the answer but i dont and need for someone to assist me.
If i have my blue royal blue cool white green red set to 100% 100% 18% 15% 18% and brightness at 85% but the overall brightness is set to 65% does that mean its 85% of the overall 65%?

very confusing

 

[aleithol]

My understanding in your example when you set overall brightness to say 65%, is that will be against each of the intensities you set on each of your colors, e.g. Your blues that you have at 100% will really be at 65%, whites at 18% will be about 12% (65%*18%), etc.

IMHO, the benefit here being the way this is implemented, you can come up with a combined color combination mixing percentages of each of the colors the way you want, and then as a second step use overall starting and ending intensity to vary to overall brightness of that combination to make the whole the whole thing transition from say completely on to off or something in-between while the combination of colors remains consistent in the transition.

Thanks but that can't be right and if it is then I am more confused then before.

@Mike
Would you be able to upload your Radion Graph file?

 

[speedo2wet]

Does anyone else have a good graph with nice growth and color for sps coral would you be so kind to upload them.

I was wondering about overlaying a few bulb graphs that I used to use along with a 250MH and trying to match the graph then just decrease the total output to 35-40%. opinions?

i also got a apex and wmx controller and just bought 2 radion g3 lights and love them. i switched out 2 fluval 48" led lights which were very bright but didn't give enough par.

i got a 48x24x24 tank and 90% LPS, im very new to this and have a friend that owns a whole sale coral shop, i filled my tank with about 40 corals like a idiot and arent sure how to set the lights properly. i verified the placements of the corals but arent too sure what the best settings are for the radions.

should i leave the royal blue on at night or should i have a complete dark period? i read both are good but im not sure whats best for the corals.

any help for this newbie here would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Ryecoon]

Can this work with Kessils and Apex?

Speedo2wet - interesting ! How is the graph coming along ? Would love to give this a try once completed .

Could anyone share radion g3 pro graph for 50gal (24x24x20).
I love Radion but need good graph for my SPS.

Thanks

 

[speedo2wet]

@EVO- almost there. I've also been searching for lighting schedules that are used with MH. Since it's always a ramping schedule, I'm just trying to match what used to work well. I should have something usable this week. Then I'll post it for tweaks and suggestions

 

[evo_2679]

Speedo2wet - thanks! Looking forward to testing and tweaking it !

Hi .....
Recommendation Gen1 over a pico/nano tank .....8.5gal .....height of water level 10" ....height the radions from water level 14"
Mainly lps/softies.

 

[hung8489]

Does anyone have Gen 3 Pro graphs you could upload? Thanks!
