Hello!

I finally got around to borrowing the local reef club's par meter and recorded the par values of my tank at different light power levels. My lights are currently set to 30% max (1 hour ramp-up, 9 hours max , 1 hour ramp down). But, I think I am going to slowly boost my lights up to 40 or 45% power. What do you guys think? My ultimate goal it to grow some of the easier types of accropora.

I created a grid and recorded the par values at the sand, middle of the water, and top of the water. Below are my notes and a picture of my two Noo-phyche lights over my 40 gal. Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
