Share your Radion Graph!

After a bunch of attempts to find the correct setting, for a tank of 60cm lenght, SPS, LPS and soft corals, this is my setting.

I've uploaded the setting here.
It's zipped, due my server restriction that doesn't accept all the files for security proposal.

And I agree that there is not a *cosmic* setting, but after many tests, and lot of time spent waiting for results (bad are the firs always) this is what I found correct for my tank, full of sps on top.

Has anyone tested the "High Growth" preset schedule and got good results with SPS?

 

[tatore]

I did. High growth of algae.

 

[ojonas81]

Here is my programming with my Radion Pro light. My corals have colored up very nicely. The growth has been outstanding.

Any chance you could share your graph in an etg file? Would like to try it out.

 

[Frank@wall]

Yup

Yup...same here

Been messing around with settings, started with cakemanPA and now I switched to Tradewinds and I tweaked it to my own likings...been using it for couple days and so far, Corals have responded well!

Would you mind sharing your graph file please?

Thanks! Must have missed that post while reading through the thread.

Sure, I'll attach it! Definitely let me know how it worked out for you!
The only thing I have changed is I got rid of all the "Cloud" percentage but I still kept the Storm.
I had to zip the file due to file extension restrictions for attachments.

Yeah, it's all good. I mean it's tough to go through so many pages anyways! :bounce3:

Thank you very much kind sir! I will most certainly let you know how it works when I get my light.
No worries about the zip..for some reason my mac only likes the zipped files. -_-

Could you repost it? The file does not exist anymore

Hey all I have a standard 90 gal . Running 2 gen 2 .Mixed reef sps to zoa, and chalices using Jon's chart right now running it at 70% . Question is what are you chalice, acan ,zoa guys charts look like ?
Thanks

 

[themk2]

A lot of people here seem to only peak at a low light percentage. I've set my gen 3 to peak at 90%, acclimatising from 75% over 2 weeks.
I'm very new to the Radions. I came from an Evergrow IT2040 which peaked at 90% (of 120w).
Here's my current graph.

I have loads of zoas (addicted), a torch, some mushies, favia & a medusa.
I'm looking for good growth during the day, and excellent colour in the evening. Can anyone help/tell me whether my current is okay?

Thanks!

UPDATE
After much thought and debate I finally figured that it was time to see what PAR I was getting from my light fixture. The reason was my SPS just don’t have the color I was looking for, So I asked a member (friend) from the local club and he lent it to me. Well to my surprise my PAR readings were ultra low so low I don’t know how I got any color at all. I was getting readings of 80 PAR 15” FROM THE WATER LINE.

Here is what I did wrong
Light fixture was 8” above water line and my intensity was 65% this was all wrong for my tank. Below is what I did to correct my PAR problem and I know it’s not been more than a day but my SPS are reacting perfectly, they all look better after 24 hours lol can’t wait to see what they look like in a month. If I keep the fixture as I may jump into a mitras ghl
Also I have it set to acclimation mode over two weeks starting at 65% intensity and going up to 75% The reading below are all it the 15" mark directly under the fixture. now most of my sps are ate the height but I do have some that are closer to the light and they are getting 350 par to 380 at the 10 to 8" mark. before they were getting 150 max so I am so happy that Bill lent me his meter.
**** Note anyone running LED'S really needs to stop guessing and measure your PAR YOU WILL THANK ME LATER
This is what I did
LIGHT FIXTURE WAS LOWERED TO 5 ½ FROM THE WATER LINE
Raised intensity to 75% max at peak
Here are the results ENJOY AND HOPE IT HELPS RADION USERS.

Bump! Anyone any thoughts?

@trueblackpercula. Can I ask what depth is your tank total from the lights? I like that you are are seeing improvement and color. My color has been losing color.

My tank is 31 deep and my light fixture is 5 1/2 from the water line. I had it set to 8" then 9" from the water line. Then I used a par meter and was taken back on how little par I got. Now that I increased my set point intensity and lowered the light fixture my Sps are I love

Just an update on mine as well...I have upped several of the points by 5% and possibly do it again in a few weeks...but still so far so good on growth and color!

Hows your program working out? I just downloaded yours and should be getting my Gen 3 Pro soon.
I see a big difference from CakemanPA.
