Btw, I had the Radions running in a custom mode and it was always at 100% intensity then( except for when it goes to night mode).

Perhaps placing the red planet at a different location.... More flow etc..?
Good luck and hope you solve this mystery...
This tank is still young. I set it up this spring. So I know it takes time. It's growing fast too. Maybe I'm just impatient

Thanks for the pics Titus, a few nice pieces forsure. You may need to be patient to see better colour, sps takes time to colour up.

I just restarted my tank in March aswell and have had great results with the T5, most of the sps I have had coloured up quite nice and consuming alot of alk and ca, most have encrusted and grown in the last few months.

I've been on an sps rampage lately and consuming some choice frags. By September this year I will add some blue magenta led strips to see more pop in the colour of my corals.
