Hey all!
I just realized that my plant light for the tank does have red in its LED profile (which can be entierly removed from the light's output) even if the red isn't visible when its turned on w/ the rest of the spectrum, should I do 0 red light on the light settings? That made 0 sense so I'll send pictures
For clarity this is not being used for heat its exclusivly the light for a bioactive planted enclosure.

#

For additional clarity, this is how the light visibly looks with red included

#

I just want to make sure that I dont hurt bro's eyes by leaving the red spectrum on. Not sure if red LED is different than the red bulbs that imfamously harm their eyes

Red light isn't damaging to the eyes. They can just see it so it disrupts circadian rhythms since they're mainly marketed for 24/7 use. The light you are using is 100% fine.
