Hey community,
in our country we say to the blue light reefing us style Our settings are more in the white range.
But now I have a question, I have a 29g SPS reef, with a really flat rock reef ( 10cm - 3,9 inch ).
So I have a maxspect 420 over it, and with my Smartphone I measured 740 par at the water surface ( I can only test at the surface, its not waterproof). But with 740 par at the surface, I think will have still enough par at the bottom.
But now I See so many nice pics with the bluer look, so I tested andeave the blue at 100 and turned the white to 40 - 50 percent. Now I measured only 340 PAR at the surface. Now is my questions, is that enough par for SPS at the bottom ( montipora) . Or are you using in the US oversized LED lights that make big pars alao with no white?
