I have trouble with some chalice. I keep them in fairly shaded spots. My radion is at 80% and yeah even that's a little bright for lps. I went from a MH to the led and sps I had on top of tank under MH had to go 2/3 down.

My original radions are still at 70% and they still bleach corals more than half way up the tank.

My chalice looses its brilliant colour if its to far down from the lights. When I recently experimented running both my led fixtures, it had bright blue and red. Now back to one fixture, half way up its dull again.

If your guys Radions are bleaching corals like you say, then my leds must suck big time.
