Have two lights on a 75gallon, mixed reef and fish.

if you have a 75gallon tank, could you please share your height and Kessil a360x lighting schedule? Thanks

In general you want to mount them about 8” from the water, but you can adjust up or down based on how much you want to cover? 12hr photo period with a 6-8hr peak usually works best. Pick a color percentage that you like and intensity for what animals you’re keeping. Use the violet channel and match your intensity, red and green should stay under 20%, I think 5-10% is enough. If you search Kessil schedule you’ll see a few listed. I’ve listed my schedule several times, so you should be able to find a few examples.

The reason why people are replying is because your request is a bit vague. How high you mount these will determine the spread / coverage. Also if you are using the lens kit that will also change things. I would guess 8 to 10" above water line is average but again it depends.

On your web browser just do a search for Kessil a360x lighting schedules thread, it is here somewhere and over 11 pages of people posting / sharing. Should get you started.
