5% every week is too much. I do 1% every 2 weeks.

Umm, maybe I'm reading this wrong, but 1% every 2 weeks would take you almost a year to even hit 49% if you started at 25% like he said he was starting at.

Yup, and my white is max at 35% only. Better go slow than sorry.

Hey Kirk. Do you have your radions set up with a similar blue to white ratio? 10% white to 100% blue is extremely blue and just about anything will have very strong color. If you have more whites and other colors mixed in on the radions that may be giving you a more true color of the bta. They could have been stressed from the switch in lighting, but mine always hid or started moving around looking for a lower light area.

thanks

ok going to start the lights at
25% uv
25% blue's
20 % white
20% green
20% red
every week move up 5% and then stop at 55%

You need to pick a starting point, then watch your coral. There is no specific number for each tank to start at. If you notice your coral receding, then you need to reducing light/time.
