Help with Radion xR30 G2

Hi,

I'm posting here in hopes someone can help with my schedule. I picked up my xR30w G2 lights about 3 weeks ago. I initially set the acclimation period for 6 weeks at 25%. The maximum intensity is set to 75%.

Within a couple weeks, I did something and somehow messed up the acclimation period. I reset the acclimation period to 4 weeks at 35% with a maximum intensity of 75%.

Tank is 75gallons. 48 inches wide and 21 inches deep. I am using the new mounting brackets and the lights sit about 9 1/2 inches from the water line. I have two xr30w lights.

Tank consists on mostly soft corals, a few LPS and one SPS. I have a maxima clam and a bubble tip anemone. Both the clam and BTA don't seem very happy.

I work from home so my lights come on at 6a and go into night mode at 6p.

Water parameters are good... not sure exactly but 20 gallon water changes bi-weekly keep it in good shape.

My question is this... can someone take a look at my schedule and tell me if it's OK?

I've attached my schedule.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

tclavell,

I am unable to view your schedule in the manor you have it saved, but perhaps the clam and BTA need more light. Personally, I would recommend setting your acclimation mode at 50% for 4 weeks.

Thank you, Alex!

This is all new to me and reefing seems to change everyday. I sometimes feel like it's purely a guessing game on my part.

Is there a method in which you recommend exporting my schedule and then attaching it here so that you can view it? I just exported the .etg file from ecosmartlive.com

I've attached a screen shot but that doesn't show a lot.

Thank you again for your help.
