I don’t agree they are doing very well. They may hold their color but growth would be glacial.Same story here. LFS runs bluer spectrum, lower par and lights mounted high. Most using Radion G4 and G4 Pro with some LFSs using Hydra 26s. Keep in mind these stores are open for up to 12 hours a day and the tanks need to be lit for customers to view. This long photo period lets them get away with much lower par numbers than most hobbiests shoot for in their home tanks. Also while most corals can be acclimated to higher par levels over time many even acros can do very well and have great color in under 100 par.
