UV red blue and green are all on same string and drivers set to 650mw so about as far as the uv red and green can handle but only 1/3 of how high the blues could really go

Whites are set at 750mw but they are ramped to 40% and that's enough light any more and I can see the bottom corals not liking it and the color gets closer to 10-12k than the 14k-15k I like

If I were to do it again I would have 3 strings

red uv green
Blue
White
for even more control

But with basicly it at 50% of how powerful it could go I'm getting solid growth right to the sand bed
