I'd say what was posted above. Blues, violets, etc maxed. Whites can be 50-75% depending on the LPS. Some really like low par. Acans don't need to be blasted by light and most people think lower light helps them not lose their rainbow colors. Mine are in a back corner.
With the Ai prime over the torch, I think you can play with lowering the whites to your visual liking, just keep in mind the par on the Fluval isn't super high. I had the stock light in my 32, immediately added a second, then a reef bar, then just changed them out for Noopsyche k7 pro v3s. But I'm also doing SPS mixed reef. The fluvals work ok for lower LPS and I fried a few corals that were doing great when I switched to the Noopsyche, even on their LPS setting, so that will give you an idea of the par the Fluval marine puts out.
I did a lot of research, the Fluval blue lights are a fraction of the whites in the bars, that is why output is so low just running blues. It's the exact opposite of almost every other light where blue LEDs can be the contributing color with 25% whites.
