Just got in a Nicrew 32w led bar light that rests on top of my 20g long tank over a glass tank top. I absolutely love the upgrade and the way it makes everything look compared to the bar light I had before. Things just pop so much more. Mind you the bar light I had before had a more clean white look no matter how I changed the settings, but all my corals were doing well.
Now that I've upgraded and have more control over the blue and white mix I'm kind of at a loss for what I should set the lights to in order to be the best for my corals. I have a decent sized Kenya tree, small nepthea, a large double-headed finger leather, a large colony of palys, several small colonies of zoas, and a few new small frags (Duncan, spicy lemon favia, blue disco shroom, and neon green star polyp).
I don't wanna fry up my corals with a better, brighter, stronger light but I also don't want it to be too dim for them (or me for that matt r lol) either. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I tried looking all over the form for info but all I could find was for much larger tanks and/or much higher wattage lights. Currently the only coral not doing well is the finger leather. It's been slumped over and looking really sad since I added it a week or so ago.
