Maxpect razor settings

would anyone care to share your settings with me? Now that all my SPS has died (sad, sad face) I want to lower the intensity and increase the blue. I have been running on "preset" which ramps up to 100 percent on both channels. I'd just decrease all settings by 20% but I want more blue... But how much?

If you have your razors dialed in, can you list your settings? I would be so appreciative.

Thanks, Helen

Most of the settings are tank depth and width along with number of fixture dependent.

Maxspectusa's site has PAR values for the 160W R420r listed (found here: http://www.maxspectusa.com/index.php...d=20&Itemid=21) for both depth and width (light spread) that can come in handy for determining if they meet your reefkeeping needs.

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ray

I am running 100 percent blue and 65 percent white for about 6.5 hours. My sunrise starts at about 10 and sunset starts at about 9. Hope this helps. 300 watt over a standard 90 gallon. I run about 12 hours total light time with sunrise and sunset
