I set up a 27g 18x20 cube. Looking for some settings for my sol blue to try out. No livestock yet. Tomm I'll have Rock. I'm planning on a mix of sps and lps. Any helps appreciated

Dont have a cube like your question, but I do have the sols. Since you dont have anything in there to acclimate and worry about burning I would just bring your levels up to around 75% and then at that point start raising and lowering the different colors to get the look you want. Then as you start placing corals you can acclimate the corals by placing them low and then slowly moving them to the spot you want. There is a pretty long thread on AI Sol setting, give it a good read, I know most are bigger tanks but there is alot of really good info in the thread
