Recommended Photoperiods
The typical photoperiod for a planted aquarium is to run the daylight spectrum for 7-10 hours per day,
an 8 hour day is most typical. Note: extended photoperiods of 10+ hours can cause algae growth. We
highly recommend a 7-10 hour daylight lighting period.
For example:
7 Hour Photoperiod
8 Hour Photoperiod
9 Hour Photoperiod
10 Hour Photoperiod
On Time = 10:00 Hrs.
On Time = 9:00 Hrs.
On Time = 9:00 Hrs.
On Time = 8:00 Hrs.
Off Time = 17:00 Hrs.
Off Time = 17:00 Hrs.
Off Time = 18:00 Hrs.
Off Time = 18:00 Hrs.
Recommended Color Spectrums
Sunlight
Provides a soft white color temperature
similar to a lower K spectrum like
6,500K. Great for planted tanks and fish
with orange and yellows.
Full Spectrum
Excellent for heavily planted aquariums,
this color spectrum runs all of the white,
red, green and blue LEDs at full power.
Daylight
Moonlight
Crisp Blue
Similar to a 10,000K spectrum,
emits a very crisp white with a hue
of blue. We highly recommend this
color for cichlids and other fish.
Deep Water
An amazing color for many
aquarium fish. White mixed with a
bit of blue and red makes many
fish “pop” in color.
We recommend either a natural moonlight color (white) or a deep water moonlight
(blue). Press Moonlight then one of the down arrows
(hold each of the buttons down for 20 seconds) and the remote will lower the intensity
level of each color spectrum to its lowest level (off) so that colors can be adjusted manually.
For example, to program blue moonlight:
1. Press Moonlight
2. Turn all colors off by pressing each down arrow key for 10 seconds
3. Press the blue up arrow key once or twice (depending upon your preference).
4. Press Moonlight for 5 seconds. Light will blink and moonlight setting is saved.
Note: If you do not wish to have moonlight, simply follow the steps above and once
all colors are at their lowest (off) setting, press the Moonlight for 5 seconds.
