Daily Question Repose: The Natura iCon’s advanced programming capabilities will be a game-changer for my reefing routine. With the ability to fine-tune lighting schedules, I can mimic natural sun and moon cycles more accurately, which should really boost coral growth and nocturnal activity. The precise control over water parameters means I can automate dosing and maintain consistent conditions, reducing the risk of swings that could stress my reef inhabitants. Plus, the ability to monitor and adjust settings remotely gives me peace of mind, knowing I can keep everything in check even when I’m not home. Overall, it’s going to make managing my reef both easier and more effective.
Bonus: supporting member entry: Hi!
Right now im runnings a couple hydra 32hd's and the app is pretty straight forward. I want to dive into the Orphek app and see how intuitive the programing is, especially with the dual chip technology and the day and night settings.
I can't really answer this one until I actually try to program one but it looks intuitive.

I never had a well design app for lights.
Kessil has a meh controller.
Noops could be good if they invest in the UI.
If it's easy it will facilitate my routine.

My Tank Thread
It will make lighting so much easier. It will ramp up/down by my location time. I don't have to manually turn on/off the lights

you know I was just thinking about how advanced Natura iCon's truly is and what I would use it for. I can totally geek out and explain on how I would experiment with presets or templates other have had success with this light fixture. but, Ive decided the best way is to start a new tank, nothing big just some frags worth growing out. that way I can decide at a some point when it's time to replace the main display tank.

I hope that it will be easier to program than my current light.

I have seen awesome breeding interactions with crabs and shrimp at night I think was brought on by simulated moonlight.

I use the slow ramp up to peak and slow ramp down plus including moon lights to balance the intensity and duration I'm able to view my tank and keep corals healthy.
By measuring par and then placing each coral in the right location.
