Week aqua users

Hi, I read your post, how many watts do you have for your 60f. I have a week of aqua z250pro, the max wattage of this lamp is 70 watts, I currently have it set to 50%. and I am still struggling with dust on the windows, like there is always too much power. Can you give a tip, how it setup ok. I will attach a picture of my 60f thanks👍

I don't use the week aqua on the 60f, that'd be a bit like using a sledgehammer to crack an egg at all but the lowest settings.

I have stopped using the week aqua altogether, landlord said no more aquariums and used no pets in the contract to force the issue.

I had 4 hour ramp up, 3 hours full power 3 hours ramp down in the end from memory and that was at 45cm from water surface over 100l.

Updated L series Pro V3 is on it's way for anyone who may be interested or was close to pulling the trigger on the V2 🙂

I’m extremely tempted to take the plunge on a Week Aqua light, I’ve never ordered from AliExpress before so I’m a bit hesitant with that. But they seem like very good lights.

I’ve ordered many aquarium related things from AE in the last couple of years, never had an issue if your concern is actually receiving stuff? If you have an actual issue and need to return the. That could be a different ballgame though…

I can show you what I have on my tank. What I did find out is you can’t use the advanced settings tab and the Week Aqua sunrise/sunset function at the same time. So I have a turn on time at 12 in advanced settings (the app takes 8 seconds to ramp up) and the my consistent 7.5 hours of “daylight” (as defined by me). I then use my sunset setting from 19:30-20:00. I then use a progressive ramp down of my sunset setting in a progressive decrease in 5 minute intervals.

Or you can use the regular or custom spectrum as a regular spectrum for the duration of photoperiod in mode settings and use the Week Aqua sunrise/sunset function set for the duration you want.

I hope that makes sense. The reduced functionality from the Nicrew and Current USA lights (used previously) is well worth the spectrum control and intensity I used previously. This is all using the Week Aqua Bluetooth V3 app.

I can also attest to receiving all items in time and working well from AliExpress.

Best regards,

Stuart

I’m really struggling with B 3.0 and my A430. I got an okay sunrise/sunset with my custom spectrum using multiple timers as laid out by Stuart, CRS fan in the previous post.

But if I just want to see the tank lit up, at off-timers hours, perhaps while friends are over, at my normal illuminance level of 40%, I don’t know how to do this? I go into the MODE tab, and I can choose my Custom spectrum, “Wong” (a slight variation of Dennis Wong’s favorite spectrum), but I can’t adjust the Power (brightness)—it tells me that’s not allowed (see pic)?! It‘s only is giving me 100% brightness or nothing else…?

How can I just randomly see my custom spectrum at 40% brightness at any time?
