What % do you run your LEDs at?

[mark]

80% for Hydras and not sure why, other than to justify to myself I'm being easy on the drivers. Never have come across anything from the manufacturer saying not to run at 100%. Not that I could, never considered running my MHs at less than full power.

When I ran LED (6 x AI sol), white were 98%, blues at 100%.

Cool!

I guess my % is on the low side. Once I have my canopy up I'll turn it up a few points.

So far I don't see my sps having issues. Although polyp extension is lacking, but that could be other factors ... .,

run a kessil a360w , %100 intensity , %80 blue , %20 white
36x20x20 , fixture 6 inches from water mixed reef , with a couple sps

on my fowlr/corals my puff wont eat , maxspect razor 20k 160w fixture %100 blue, %40-80 white 48x48x20t tank fixture 6 inches of water

Blues @ 65%
whites @ 55-60%
green/ red @ 5%

Just bought T5s today to supplement, so will probably amp up blues to 70-75

I built a custom LED light for my 31gallon and just reduced my Actinics to 40% and my daylight to 18%. I think our hobby has significantly underestimated the power of LEDs.

I have a RSM 66 gallon with the Steve's led retrofit, I run them @ 100% on all 4 channels and the tank looks great.

Ai sol on the 300 gallon mostly Sps tank I had 12 running at 100 percent for 5 hours on all 3 channels, great growth but some of the Lps suffered. Now on my the 150 I went first with 3 sol and 4 t5s then 3 Vegas and now 2 hydras, all 3 set at 40 percent for the next few month then planning on ramping it up to eventually 100 percent as long as my corals allow it. I believe the spectrum shifts when you dial it down compare to the manufactures data so I like to keep it at 100 percent even just for a short period of time.
