I have a LPS tank and I'm trying to balance everyone's needs.
On the high end I have a torch that I've been told would benefit from 250ish par.
On the low end of lighting needs, I have some nice bright fungia/cycloseris and I am considering adding scolys to the tank.
The tank is a 40g aio lit by an xr30 gen4. The problem is that my par gradient in the tank is rather small. When I have the max par set to 150, the top of the rockwork is 150 and the sand bed is like 125.
I guess my question is, if I target 250 par for the higher light torch, can the fungia and scoly be acclimated up to like 175? If I do this, will I likely shift their colors?
