What settings for your reefbreeders photon??

Hey Guys,

I am just curious at what percentage everyone runs their Photon on. Could you please include tank size, height from water, etc. I am currently ramping up to around 60% on each channel, and my LPS have not been happy. I have a Photon 24 over a 40 breeder, 10 inches over the water.

Thanks!!
 
Might be helpful to include what corals you keep also. Some peoples settings might be best for what they keep but not for what you keep

I have 2 reefbreeders, 50 or so pots each 18 inches over my 55 gal. I preprogrammed a custom setting max is 80% from 12 to 1 pm. Acros sps are 6 to 0 inches from water surface. Chalice, only 3 are on the tank floor with slight rock overshadowing. Zoas are on a rock face perpendicular to the light beam 2/3 to 1/3 of the way down.

How long have you had them? Did you acclimate? If the lights are new I would do a acclimation period with them at a low setting increasing over a month or even two.
I run my Vegas over my 90. 12" off the water white 65, all blues 90, red 25, and green 20
