So I have one Radion XR30 gen 5 Pro. I have a mix between LPS/SPS. My tank is 36 long by 18 wide and 21 deep. I have most of my acropora directing in the middle from bottom to top. I’m wondering what my intensity and lighting settings should be at. I did a par test a little while back and will...

I was lucky enough to come across 2 orphec atlantic v4s and 2 4 ft or3 light bars. I'm currently thinking of how I want to mount my lights. I want to do something (personally)different so no canopy. I'm going to hang somehow and showcase the rimless tank. Been looking at pictures of different...

Good Evening, I just started a salt water tank. I will hopefully have it completely cycled within the next couple weeks and will slowly start adding corals and fish. I am curious what times do people have the lights set for and how many hours per day do they keep their lights on? Just want to...

Selling my Current Marine light because I have no use for it anymore. I bought it when it first came out and got the free wave pump with it (threw it out because it took a crap on me), I had it on my reef tank for roughly 6ish months then took it off because I upgraded lights. It has just been...
