PAR values for SKKYE Light 18 watt LED

amutti · 02/04/2015, 03:37 PM

I searched the internet looking for these values and innovative marine just got back to me so I figured I'd post them.

Hi Tony,

Thank you for much for taking an interest in our products.
These par ratings were taken in the Fusion 10 gallon tank.

4" - 250
8" - 150
12" - 60

Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Thanks again,

Does the 4 inches mean 4 inches from the bottom of the light 4 inches down or 4 inches down from the rim of the tank?

Even if it is 4" in the water, it's useless as a light for anything but a FOWLR tank. A PAR of 60 at 12" deep will be hard pressed to keep any coral alive.

Thanks so much for this! I had been looking at the IM nuvo kit with this light for a nano tank. I'm glad I didn't decide to give it a try!
