This is for all who bought the group buy LEDs.
When you set them up what light percentages did you start out with?
How was it % wise through the day?
What do you plan on maxing out at and for how many hours?
How many days did you stay low letting your tank adjust to the new lights and how much percent increase did you do each day till you got to the lighting you want?
 
keep your max low, like at 40% for the whites. you can go a little higher for the blues. White LED's are so strong that corals will bleach if started out too strong. slowly up the power over the course of a few weeks.
 
I would say set your max for about 4 hrs first and then slowly ramp up and ramp down before and after the max for those 4 hrs. You can slowly change it to 5-6 hrs for max over time instead of the initial 4 hrs. I have mine right now at 5 hrs max light for the day.
