Retrofit

[Jorgieee]

I have a 29 gallon biocube with the retrofit leds and was curious to see what anyone with the same setup is running their whites and blues ? my corals seem to be a bit stressed i am still trying to find the right settings for my lights thanks !

To start off, turn both channels to 255/255. Then start turning the white channel down until you find a color that you really like. Write both numbers down, this is your color ratio. Let's say you pick 200 and 255.

 

Now, turn them down to around 35% of that ratio, so to 70 and 90, respectively. Leave it at that for a few weeks. Then, raise both channels by 5% (which is ~14 points) every week or every other week until you notice corals retracting or lightening slightly in color. This is now your maximum power, stop raising the light percentages.

 

Also set your Storm controller's ramp time to the maximum possible.
