ai hydra color settings

That is a really open ended question because every tank is different. If you just put these lights on, you will need to slowly ramp up your lights over a course of several weeks for them to adjust. Too much light without adjustment phase will cause coral to bleach out from stress.
 
Ok so a little more detail, I have a 90 cube, I have 2 ai hydras 12 in above the water, my corals were under 4 bulb t5 and 2 reef brites! I have ramped my the power from 20 to 42 over the last 2 months!my lights are both slightly off center, one of center left on off center right! My colors are set as
5 red
7 green
75 blue
50 roal blue
85 db
7 v
7 uv
any other questions that I can answer to help plz ask away and I'll answer them!
 
Your corals are going to use the cool white. The rest is for viewing enhancement. I would max out the cool white.

Hold on.....someone please chime in!! I have AI Vega's and I read to use caution with the whites for LED's....The cool white can be a little intense for corals, I can't seem to find where I read this, but please do the research.

Typically our customers seem to like a mix of this:

40 white
40 red
40 green
65 blue
65 royal
65 db
40 uv

This makes about a 18k look.
