For those of you with a Kessil 360W what settings do you have for it? I have mine on the Kessil controller and it was mostly feeling out color and intensity but curious on those who have it locked in well and are getting great results. Thanks.
I should mention I'm new and this works for me and the items I'm growing have simple lighting requirements, compared to SPS.
I'm not a wizard at lighting but this is what I do. I only run lights for nine hours a day in my tank as well. Most of my items are growing really fast like my Zoas and frogspawn. The Zoas seem to get about 1-2 heads per week. Seems super fast to me but have no idea what the norm is.
Start
12:00 pm 20% color, 20% intensity
1:05 pm 30% color, 30% intensity
2:30 pm 55% color, 45% intensity
4:00 pm 40% color, 35% intensity
6:00 pm 20% color, 15% intensity
9:00 pm 0% color, 0% intensity
End
As you know, the lights will fluctuate around those colors and intensities. For instance, before 9:00 pm my color is almost at 5% and intensity close to that. The controller ramps up and down around those suggestions.
I hope that helps.
