As the title states, I just made the switch and am trying to figure out what power percent I should run. The light is on an IM 15g that is euphyllia dominant.

I'm currently running AB+ on 40%. I was running my prime at 65%

Well, an XR15 is roughly double the power of an AI Prime, so... I'd say to start at 35-40% or so. It has more spread so it won't quite be twice as much PAR, but it's probably close.

That is to say, you're probably pretty close. If stuff seems grumpy, lower it to 35% and do a 2 week acclimation up to 40%.
