I've got a reefbreeders LED on my 40 breeder. It was all sorts of trouble to set it up on the old app, and I still haven't managed to figure out how to get it on the new one (and I'm still salty-pun intended-that the LFS I got it from decided no one would want a controller and everyone would want the app driven one.) I swear when I first got them there were presets for soft corals, LPS, or SPS. I remember setting it to the softies, and I know not everything is thrilled in my tank because of that. I've been using egg crate for my top, but it's always been a bit saggy, and I just grabbed a glass lid today (can't afford a 3D printed one.) Can anyone give me any guidelines on what I should set the lights to with the glass over it so the corals (currently a couple acans, a couple gorgonians, a pipe organ which is the only really happy coral in there, and a few rock flower nems) plus perhaps some more LPS once I get the aiptasia under control will be happy?
