90 g mixed reef Kessil

[Chitownreefs]

Was looking to see what everyone has their Kessil lighting schedule set at. I have 2 a360we over a 90g reef and seem to have trouble with some corals either growing or staying alive at times. It can be something as easy as zoos that will end up dieing off.

I’ve got a 75gal with two a360we’s. Growing sps, lps and zoas, but you need a minimum level of nutrients.

Tp 1 Tp 2. Tp 3 Tp 4 Tp 5 Tp 6
13:00 14:00 18:30 19:30 21:30 22:15
Intensity 30% 85% 80% 5% 5% 0%
Color 30% 35% 30% 5% 5% 0%

Hope it helps.

Awesome maybe ill give that schedule a try... I tested all the basic levels last night and everything came back within normal specs. KH, nitrate, Ph, phosphate etc.

Now keep in mind i got to these levels over time, slowly. Intensity, started around 50%, and watched corals for weeks before bumping up, in 5% increments. You’ll notice my schedule time point reaches 85%, in another few weeks, I plan change schedule to hold that 85% for my 4 hour main lighting period.

Good luck.
