what % do you have the two channels on? looks great!

Not sure how the 360 is but the dials on my A350w are like volume knobs with an arrow. No numbers or indication of intensity. If I were to place a ratio, I would say 90/10 on average. Then I would play around with different spectrums to see whatever looks nice. No particular science behind what I'm doing. I'm actually switching from a metal halide Sun pod but the fan was way too loud and it was always hot. But I had good color and growth from the sun pod. You have any pics of your tank?

I have the 350w as well, over a 50 (24x24x20), and generally do 75% / 50% blue/white (approximation, I just turn the knobs to what I think is 75% and 50%). Its still a new tank, but im getting decent growth, just wondering if I should start cranking it up to 100/75 or 100/100

Nice scape. I like the minimalistic set up and it's going to look good when everything matures. Are you using just the goose neck to connect your a350w or are you also using the 90 deg adaptor to hang the pendant? You'll get a better coverage overall with 90 deg. I just ordered mine and waiting for it to come in.

thanks, have it suspended over the tank, about 8", so coverage is good... Im also backing it up w/ 2 24" giessman t5 bulbs (actinic and actinic+)

 

I just heard so much about how powerful these things are so im hesitant to run it past 75% power, lol

do not turn your kessils higher than 70-75% ...they will bleach the shit out of everything. I have two over a 50gal, and 55% is the MAX i can run them both at before i start to notice some bleaching

Nice setup, I have the same tank with a Hydra 26. I'm trying to go the frags plus time route so mine looks empty compared to yours.
