Hello. Just purchased the Chihiros WRBG II Pro 90. I'm in Canada and had to buy what was available. I have an established 90P (48 gallon) planted tank with a Neocaridina shrimp colony. I'm rescaping and adding the following plants

Ludwigia Palustris Super Red
Rotala Florida Sunset 'ramosior' Tissue Culture
Potted Echinodorus Paul Kloecker
1-2-Grow! Cryptocoryne 'Nurii'
Hygrophila Polysperma 'Rosanervis'
Cryptocoryne Wendtii 'Flamingo' Tissue Culture
Ludwigia inclinata 'Dark Orange' ADA Tissue Culture
Marsilea Hirsuta Tissue Culture

I'm keeping my Vallisneria Asiatica, Phyllanthus fluitans, Nymphaea lotus, and Bucephalandra Kedagang. I run co2. Lights are on 8 hours a day. Fertilize twice a week, but will likely increase to three times a week.

My question is regarding the light setting. Should I start at 30% WRGB or ? Thank you for your thoughts.
 
90P tank size is 90x45x45cm?
WRGB II Pro 90 is stronger for this size tank. If it's a newly planted tank, you can start below 20%, 6h a day.
 
Tank dimensions are correct. The tank is mature, running for two years. I'm removing 3/4 % of the plants and adding the ones listed in my first post.
 
8 days ago I bought the same in oder to upgrade my 180 liter tank.There is a much difference between my juwel stock lights and Chihiros pro.
Unfortunately I did ramp for 2,5 hours and then I had for 6 hours 100% lights on and today I noticed some algae problems in the tank.
I decreased lights to 60%. Hopefully it will be ok.
