shootingstar is on a distinguished road
Default

I run Sol Super blues on a 6 foot 24 inch deep tank. All SPS, the only LPS I have are on the bare bottom.

I have been running them almost 1 year. Started with 3 units and no higher than 35%. Ramped them up very slow. Increasing by 5% once every 3 weeks or so until I reached a peak of 80% for an hour then gradually increased the peak time to 4 hours at peak.

All transitions are 15 min ramps. Lights are 12" above.

Recently added a fourth module.

If it would help I can post my schedule later when I get home from work.

I have them programmed more towards "whiter" (which is better for growth but less to my liking visually) during the day when I am not home and "more blue" (which I like the look better) during the evening when I am at home. Best of both worlds.
