I rented an apogee 510 from a local fish store and have been using it in my display and I feel like the readings are off. My light is a single Radion gen 2 pro over a 93 gallon cube. I have had the set up for several years.
I am battling high nitrate but I am lowering. My nitrate was 100 and now is 50.
On the bottom of the tank I have a 3g mummy eye chalice that has grown 6 times its size and still growing. My par reading was 35-45
In the mid level of the tank I have a reverse sunset montipora I thought was dead and I see new growth over the last month about the size of 3 disks the size of dimes. My Par reading on that 100-115.
I have a BTA that moved into the center of red monti cap that is 9-10 inches in diameter. The monti is close to the overflow 2- 3 inches from the top of water. My par is 260 by the BTA. I pumped up the brightness to 100 percent and m par was 318.
Any ideas what is going on??
