Title: ai hydra 26 hd control
Post by: Reef Tank 2.0 on November 25, 2018, 16:19:01
I have three hydra 26 hd's, above my 130g tank. the lights are about 5-6" above the water surface. I have a number of HIGH LIGHT corals that are bleaching out when placed below these lights.
I'd say the over all distance from the light to the top of the rock where these corals would reside is 15"
I thought of lowering the intensity of the lights but I have a BTA, and a bunch of corals that are happy where they are. If I lower the intensity, then I need to worry about everything else not having enough light, including that BTA.
Anyone else have the same issue?

My light levels are as follows
UV - 35
Violet - 35
Royal Blue - 88
Blue - 88
Green - 0
Red - 0
Cool White - 20

Is there a way to control each light independently, yet still be on a schedule?  Right now I have one parent, and 2 children, all synced together.
