Did some PAR measurements today Aqua Knight V2

[BriDroid]

I’m picking up my first corals tomorrow, a small frag of Space Invader Chalice and a small frag of Toxic Cyphastrea. I’m running my Aqua Knight on my 10 gallon cube at channel 1-50%, channel 2-50%, and channel 3-13%. 1 and 2 are blues and 3 is the whites. Using my iPhone with the Photone app with a DIY paper diffuser and a vacuum sealed bag, I was reading 200 at the top rock and around 100 on the sand. I had the app set to blue/white LED. It was hard to get my phone exactly where I wanted it, but this give me a rough idea. Looked like the two coming tomorrow are going low on the rocks!

How'd this install go? Everyone adjusting well to the lights?

So far so good. I’ve got small frags of two different Cyphastrea, a small hammer, a chalice and a candy cane down low. Up top I’ve got a sunset monti and a forest fire digi. Everything is acclimated to the lights running 80% on both blue channels and 5% on the white channel. I’m already seeing growth on the sunset monti and the chalice. The hammer is growing new tiny tentacles too. The candy cane is ready to split into two soon. I think everyone is happy.

Here is a pic of my tiny sunset monti. First pic was taken 9/17 and the second pic was today, 9/26. It seems very happy with the light. It’s sitting in about 250-300 par.
