I have my AI's 12" above the water line I ramp up to max. on blues & royal blues @ 80% with whites @ 60% starting 3 pm to 4:30 pm what I call mid day sun. Then ramp down from there. Had to play with them to get to a sunrise to sunset that gave me the best over all light for the corals, I probably could treak more but this seems to work for me so far.
