what kind of lighting do you have on your bta's???

I have 2 BTAs and a LTA under a reef breeders Photon40, and they all are looking good. One BTA sits in one spot down at the sand, the other usually sits up top, and the LTA has it's little corner all camped out.

Very nice! What settings do you have the photon set for?

Heres mine under t5's
 
I have a little over 30 BTAs in my 185 gallon tank. I run two Radion G2 Pros over the tank set at 45% Intensity.

This is interesting. I think I may have my Radion set too high. I have the unit about 8" from the water line and at 65%!

mind sharing a pic of the bta's? that's what i would go by. it's nice to get an idea of what other people are running their lights at, but each tank is different. how do your bta's look?

For that picture I set for Blues -10 Whites - 100 to get my camera to take a decent picture.

Right now I'm maxing out at 65 blues, 50 whites during a 12 hour ramp up/down.

cool... thanks for the info.
 
I've got 2 rainbows and gbta. i run 4 t5's and blue led accent strip.

2 blue plus
1 coral plus
1 purple plus
16 cree rb leds run at 700ma
3 uv leds run at 350ma
 
I have 6 or 7 RBTA clones under 3X400watt Radiums in a 210 gallon tank. All grew out from one anemone. Some of the clones are up on the top of the rockwork. IMO, BTAs are very adaptable to lighting as long as they are acclimated properly.
 
Still learning how to fix the white balance in my macro-shots, but I think this is the best picture I have to date, still under a modified Photon-48 in a 75G. Still can't believe I only paid $60 for this guy from DD. $30 shipped if you count the discounts from past purchases :)
