I also am having trouble keeping my Sps colourful, tested par and mine is really low yet I have to keep scolys and clams in the shade as they bleach if I don't. I was told that par meters are very accurate with led as they cannot read certain spectrums. I notice top down my colours are starting to come in but from the front and sides it's brown blobs.

Try min the tooty fruity colours to 10% or less and run more cool white. This should help. I am running the 6100 and I have both blues, uv and cool white at 100% while others at 10% or less. I was running all the colours at 100% and all that got me was nuisance algae. I had reconfigured my lights in jan and saw nothing but improvements in coral colours. Since Jan I have also dropped the mitras down to 4 in above surface of the water.

Everything in my tank other than the sps loves the mitras. I might be slowly colouring a few sps up but it has been extremely frustrating.
Blue, Royal Blue, HV - 100% Cool White, Green - 35% Red, Hyper Red - 5% Neutral White, Yellow - 10% Light is about 7" off the surface at 70% intensity. I had to turn it down a while ago after the tank reacted badly to more light.

having issues with my 6200
Ok I set up a program to run the lights and my scollies are dying, and im getting green aglase growing that i never had before and Red turf is coming back. My corals seems to be reaching for the light.
I'm hoping the channels are set right i have them set for 50% but is that right or does that stay at 100%. If I want to boost the LED i use the slider bar at the top.. WRT the hair algae and Red cynao Im running pellets and have ben since last oct and never had a issue. since i put in this 6200 from the 6100 its going weird .

The splash guard/ shield or what ever you like to call it on my Mitras seems a bit 'fogged' right below the LED clusters, its not that bad but any suggestions how to clean it? I haven't tried anything yet and thought I'd ask first?

Like all things they need a bit of a service from time to time, here is the maintenance guide
http://forum.aquariumcomputer.com/do...?do=file&id=78 You just need to clean the screen. two screws and out it comes  that easy.

Now that I have a PAR meter I feel it's your lighting program that's hindering your PAR numbers, not the lights themselves. The lights are more than capable to produce 350+ PAR at that depth, but the white channels are required

So what is a good K rating to run these lights at. I have the 6200
