sepulvd Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Currently running a HIPARGERO LED Aquarium Light. But am not sure if its good light or not. My corals are going to be softies and lps Quote Link to comment
paulsz Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Your running just one light over the tank? How's the shadowing on the edges of the tank? Do you have a pic? I would say get a second one. Two of those will be plenty of light for softies or lps. Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 What hipargero are you running? There are a few models. Its hard to advise without knowing the light and specs Quote Link to comment

paulsz Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 yeah honestly that looks like it could support softies and lps no problem,. If you want to have less shadowing, buy a second one. Cheaper than getting an AI or Kessil or alike. 1 Quote Link to comment
supperfish Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I estimate the PAR at the bottom would be around 200-300 based on this guide, you could dim 50% then gradually increase. Quote Link to comment
