Hi Willy, yes I'm using Hydra 40. Is awesome! My tank is always crystal clear with Hydra, with the all round cystal glass, you hardly notice there is water in it :) that's how clear it is! I would strongly recommed to all reefers

Welcome to the dark side bro.. Do be careful with your coral getting bleach due to strong lighting from your new light. Never underestimate the power of this beast, i would recommend you to play around with the light intensity slowly upward or use the coral acclimation function when you add new corals .

Helped Lawrence measure his set up with the PAR meter. With his current peak settings, this was obtained :

- Appears to be generally on the low side. LPS should ideally be in the 150 - 250 PAR levels for good growth

- We then increased the maxpect razor settings & able to move almost all the positions to within recommended zone. i.e. 150 PAR (sand bed) - 250 PAR (upper portions of the rock). 

- All the best :)

 

 

This what I am really confused with. What is the correct lighting and positioning. Anyone offer this type of service or knowledge. My lighting allow me to adjust the brightness but i can never figure out which is the correct way. Will deeply appreciate if someone offering this service. Thanks.
