Hey there-

I have a 26g redsea max nano mostly stocked with soft coral, and a couple LPS. I am wondering what mode I should have my XR15 at and what % intensity? I’ve been running it pretty low but my softies don’t seem to be growing (could also be bc my nitrates stay below 2ppm). I am curious what other folks with softies and LPS run their ecotech xr15 at on a similar sized tank? And how long of a photoperiod?

I have a larger tank but XR15 lights are very weak par lights. I run mine for 10 hours at 100% intensity on AB plus program for mixed reef tank.
