Red Sea Max 250 with Steve’s Leds Upgrade and Hurricane Controller

[thomastanks]

Hello, First time poster but have used r2r for most of my hobby information for forever. I have been running a Red Sea Max 250 with the Steves LEDs Upgrade for 7 months and was wondering if anyone would share their light settings/schedule. I followed Steve’s instructions and acclimation guide and eventually did turn the lights up too much. Battled the algae and got the corals back but I have been cautious to up the lights again. At the time I also was traveling more for work so would up the lights for a week and then check when I came home. I have various Zoas and Soft corals that do well but also wanted to see what other people were growing in there 250 with Steve’s LEDs and I haven’t seen many posts of RSM250s with the Steve’s LEDs recently. I know I should just buy a PAR meter but figured I would post here before I did.

Par meters are $$$$$ to save some money I would see if a LFS lets you rent one. I did that and saved hundreds.
