I know it’s best to get a par meter and I will try to rent one out soon but in the mean while I’m curious to know what you guys run on your tanks. I currently have a 40 gallon cube tank running the nicrew 100 and the controller. I have the light at its maximum height and at its peak my lights are at about 5% white and 15% blue. Ramps up in 5% blue for an hour and ramps down in 10% blue for 2 hours. On for 12 hours total. For now I’ll just have LPS and softies and will later add sps when I can.

If it’s not too much to ask for also share a pic of your tank. Would love to see your corals.

Edit: currently only have a pair of clowns and candy cane corals. Going to get hopefully anemone and a torch tomorrow.

I have 2 100s over my 60 cube. I have them ramping up and down for 1 hour. And then dip a few percentage points when my t5s come on for 6 hours. I posted a screenshot of my schedule. I do not run whites. I have my t5s carry that load. Older pic of my tank with the leds/nicrews on.

Sorry to jump on the thread. I have a question about lighting. Would two nicrew 100w be enough for an aqua one reefsy 255?
