When you take photos of your frags under Radions, what Radion settings do you use? I assume that you shoot RAW with a Macro lens, any post adjustment?

Great collection.

Great collection.

The shots under radions are usually under royal blues and UV. I shoot in raw and adjust the white balance post in light room. Blue shots are much harder to do and not get a ton of blue wash. I take them now and then but I prefer shooting under the T5s and Reefbrites. Still get that pop with more of a natural look if you can dial in the white balance.

@Russo757 impressive acros and photos. So a 12 hour photoperiod? Mind sharing your Radion color channel settings?

Thank you for the details. Can you please describe your coral nutrition philosophy as well as what type of fish/bioload you have in your system.

I run AB+ schedule on my radions. I’ll have to check the channels but it’s one of ecotechs custom schedules for sps

I’ve found that the corals have better PE and better color around 4-6 No3 and .02-.06 Po4 So I try to live in that range. I feed heavy to maintain and also add Acropower 2x a week for aminos.

Fish:
Powder blue tang
Kole tang
Purple tang
Red Sea sailfin tang
Blue hippo tang
Yellow tang
Magnificent foxface
Pink tail trigger
Malanaris Wrasse
6 line wrasse
Mandarin goby
