Question, how long have you been running your graphs? I was running mine ramping up from 20k, 18k, 14k, slowly maxing out at 80% at 10k for 4 hours(then back down) and it started to cook some sps (green monti cap is now light green, birds nest is bleached, etc). Other coral ie brains, cups, etc on the sand bed faded too. The light is about 8in above the 60gal cube. I dropped in down to 65% at 20k hoping to get color back in some of the coral that faded. Total time is around 11hrs. I changed all my points to 20k so it ramps up the same. I plan on ramping it up slowly (this time) but I am not sure how high. Anybody have the same problems or did I just rush things?
(alk, cal, mag, temp, etc all good) |

I'm another person who has been endlessly tweaking their light trying to make my corals happy. I have had the light for six months I just can't decide if they are getting too much or too little light. My only SPS is a monticap up at the very top which went from a dark brick red color to a washed out pinkish red and it doesn't grow at all. My zoas have all faded in color & are not spreading. Frogspawn and hammer have gotten paler and now have skeleton showing. Ricordias mostly shriveled up and disappeared.
Crocea clam on the sandbed seems happy, which makes me think there is plenty of light, and yet the zoas look like they are stretching towards the light which makes me think there is not enough light! Tank is 24" X 24" X 20" deep. Running one Radion. Parameters good, stable & unchanged from when everything did well under MH + T5s. I am determined to make this light work for me - I know it can, I just think I haven't hit the right settings yet. I get so confused by the massive differences in how long people run these lights, at what intensity and what color spectrum. Currently I have just given up and put it in Natural mode with a 12 foot depth offset and I have it at 55% intensity and am thinking I should slowly increase it to maybe 60-70% intensity? |

Put the file in the same folder that all your other files are located and it should work.

Good morning all! Here's my crack at a decent light cycle for my 8 gallon cube. I know what you're thinking... A Radion over a 8g cube? OVERKILL! Well, yes it is, but the way I see it, I'll already have a kick *** light for when I upgrade!
Tank Size/Dimensions: 13 x 13 x14 Start Day/Start Night: 8:00am to 7:00pm What are you keeping: zoas/poly's, softies, and mushrooms. Other useful information: umm... these lights are awesome?! So when I first got these lights, I didn't play with them enough, and when I programmed them, it was basically 12k throught the day, at varying intensities. NOW I know that that was a BAD choice (the overwhelming amount of hair algae could attest for that, I'm sure). Last night I spent quite some time researching and playing with the Radion, and came upon this thread which really helped me out (thanks guys!). It took me quite a while get the sunrise/sunset effect right, and I'm still not quite happy with it, but I'm sure after more playing around I can get it just right (or at least to the way I want it). Here's a screen shot of my graph, and I've attached the schedule for all you Radion-over-the-nano people (I'm sure there's AT LEAST one more person who is overkilling it!).
