What size tank is yours? I might try 100% now
XL300 65g DT. I ran my lights at 50 to 70% because internet posts said that was good. Corals struggled and died. Rented a par meter and found par levels extremely low. Slowly moved intensity up to 100% and now corals thrive and grow huge. Your light par is low.

How many xr15s? I’m going to slowly ramp up to at least 85 by next week. My mushroom doesn’t seem to do well at 75% main reason I lowered it down. Going to try it again
