I’ve seen a couple stags that will basically live in the swell zone for flow and take upwards of a k of par! Hahahaha. Get there slow and you’d be shocked what some of these acros do under astonishingly high levels! Hahaha
I keep my tenuis high up, I recently raised my stag next to them and huge increase in color. Same color as before just more vibrant and some green undertones. but thats in the 400s lol i can only imagine 800
