TOURING Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Decided to just start up a 20x24x9" shallow tank. Do I do 50/50 white/blue and turn the other knob till it initially turns on? Use to have a 150w 20k over it. Thanks guys Link to comment

TOURING Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 What percent is it when it turns on? I know the knob moves a bit for actually turning on "Where do I start?" With the instructions or looking on the Internet for tanks with the Kessil. Sorry I just wanted to see what other owners started at in regards to acclimation. Link to comment

I would guess 10% but for that small of a tank that's a powerful light so start low, I had a spectral controller but sold it too bad I don't still have it Link to comment
TOURING Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Yea I need one now... Do you recommend me getting one? There going for preety cheap now. Link to comment

Cencalfishguy56 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Do you think a 360 can replace a 150w mh for sps? I don't think leds Will ever be as great as MH or T5 because of shadowing but the 360 is pretty damn close and I've seen sps dominant tanks take off with these lights! There is one on YouTube that's like 300 gallons and has like 6 of these lights with tons of sps! Link to comment
TOURING Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 Cool thanks. i have 3 of them but i doubt ill need 3 for a small frag tank. putting the other 2 in the for sale section. Link to comment
Gooburz Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I would start at full power 2 inches above the water, when your corals all turn white then you know it is working . I don't own one but they are awesome lights, post some pics!!! Link to comment
