I am just blown away by the quality, clear scientific comparison, and clarity of this channel. I don't even do saltwater, just freshwater, but I still consider this borderline-essential viewing, especially your algae refugium series!
Holy Scoly that tank at the end!
I Just made my first BRS order yesterday, got myself a ATO and new tank heater, was kinda bummed though because the Mr. Chili chef plushie was out of stock lol Today I went to my local fish store “Fish Gallery” in Dallas Tx. I bought a new reef suitable led light, my first ever coral! along with some test kits and a couple other items. I’m super excited to start my reefing hobby and am thankful you guys made this video to help me find out how to use my lighting to the best of my abilities & to really help make my new coral pop!
Great video. Covers some of the topics we've been internationally validating over tanks for almost three years. But instead of buying new or more lights or playing with sliders (slide and pray) why not just upgrade their pucks and achieve that plug-and-play simplicity of T5s but with a modern twist? We've got you covered with our upgrades for the AIs. Ultra-wide spectrometer-verified biology-band redefining blue spectrum and phat blues with a punch. #shamelessplug 😎
Hey Ryan. So I was surprised to see the royal blues be turned down and the red and greens turned up when you did this video.
I've had my lights adjusted based on the AB+ that you guys used in previous test but a bit more on the whiter side for what 'looks like' a more balanced spectrum.
With that said I've been investigating lighting alot lately and in your video you should the thick balanced band of natural sunlight. So after you showed the adjustments you made on the LEDS to try and Mimic that I was willing to give it a try. I for the most part used the same settings with just a little more tweeking on a few channels and using the spectrum graph on the myAI app to follow your lead.
The next day I saw NOTICEABLE differences with basically all of the corals. Mushrooms had almost doubled in size and now a week later I can say that day by day the corals have looked better and better with fullness and color increase.
The fun fact is that I used your ratios but kept my wattage consumption the same. Not knowing if higher energy wave lengths produce more par at the same wattage consumption, I wanted to assume my par was remaining the same yet only changing the spectrum.
Maybe you can answer the question if 50 watts of royal blue produces the same par as 50 watts of green
interested in the percentages you set? care to share? thanks
Me too! Please share you're percentages 🙏
Surprised you didn’t show off green light florescence. There are reds and oranges that explode under green.
Great video
Hello, is there a difference between Indigo and Royal Blue?
9:40 "...I wouldn't be surprised if there continues to be a trend of using more warm whites..." I think we just got a soft-announcement of the G7 Radions.
The G5 pros have Warm light settings, i fell in love with these Radions
Please please can you do a break down on the TMC reef photons lights
Where can I buy a balanced light?
What should I set my greens and reds to on the a360x?
❤❤🐟🐟
Is the colour pigments in corals, in the coral tissue itself or in the zooxanthellae algae that grows in the coral tissue... or both?
Zooxanthellae is generally brown
Is your customer service down? Figured maybe I can reach you guys from here. Emailed 2 times, no response, called at 12:30 Estern time Mon, strait to voice saying your office is closed.
What radions are on the 750 you showed the balanced setting for? g6? blue or pro?
Pros. Only the Pros have thee warm whites :)
@@BRStv Sweet! have pros hooked up on my tank right now seems like I made a good choice. Thank you for these videos all makes a lot of sense once you put it together like this.
@@vested7664 glad to be of service
@@BRStv Will you guys do this for g5 blues?
So would you say _don't_ put a Glow Blade on Micro Lords?
Each coral is different and 380 UV may be more likely than violet . The challenge is that violet range is likely very beneficial biologically
Some people just move the corals that are affected to a lower par area and they change back
@@BRStv I imagine the key is moderation, then...
@@BRStv Good to know that they *can* go back.
Neptune sky?
Check out the next video in this series. The Sky is featured at the 2:49 minute mark.

So trees "look" green because they are not green. My mind is blown🤯
Buy a Led, run all channel and intense at 90%. Dont change anything after that forever. Hang fixture above water surface 20 inch at first, decrese by the time such as metal halide fixture and every coral will growth much.
