Also make sure you have a zero setting in the morning, ie at 9pm @ 10%, 10pm @ 0%, 7am @ 0%, 8am @ 10%

So your tank is in the land of the Midnight Sun?

What do you think of the colours in the light so far?

Well I haven't really played around with them enough to say for sure, but so far I love them.

Got the program figured out tonight and got the light hung above the tank. My phone doesn't like LEDs, so apologies for the pics.

That is awesome. I like how you've changed the scape up a little also. Looking great!

tough to say yet but what do you think about the amount of light reaching the ends of your 40" tank? how high is the light mounted and how bad is the light bleed into the eyes if you crouch beside the tank?

I've currently got it mounted 11.5" above the eurobracing, with room for to go upwards for coral acclimation. Has no issues really covering the length of my tank.

Got to remember that I have 3" euro-bracing so I'm losing 6" in overall length, so I really only need to cover 34"x12"

These pics were also taken at around 9 or 930pm, so my lighting was already down to 15% brightness. Can't really comment on the light bleed into my eyes, I didn't really notice it though.

You are welcome to come have a look if you're thinking about buying one.
