Red Sea REEFER 200 G2+ Build

I see you also have a XR30 Pro Gen 6. Did you tuned the intensity with a PAR meter? I had a real hard time to get it just right for a mixed reef. That Gen 6 does too much of a good job on the spread for a smaller tank. With the sand bed at 150, I was only getting 220-230 on the top of my rockscape. If I had 300 on top, my sand bed was cooking at 200-250.

Someone here said he fixed that issue with the "High Intensity Lens Kit" upgrade and it worked great for me. Now the top is 300 for the Acros while the sand bed stays lower at around 130 for my Scolys.

I haven't turned it on yet, but I do have the high intensity kit on my system

That's a great deal! I'm not sure what phone you have, but if you don't have a lens, you can play around with your camera settings and white balance it, so that you don't need one. Having that QT is a big help. I wish my LFS did that.

Good call on the camera settings. I've been learning to you the "Pro Mode" crazy difference. Now it looks closer to what we see IRL.

Looks great! Slowly but surely you can fine tune it even more! Adjusting ISO and speed will also help too. I am curious about the holy grail though.

Looks good! Buy the orphek lense from Amazon. That’s what I use and I’m pretty certain it was fairly priced. Your camera work does look really good tho.

Finally got the ReefDose installed. Currently dosing All for Reef, Bio-Magnesium and Amino-Organics (all Tropic Marin). Loving this little device. The cabinet is officially full hahah.
