Interesting ....

Based on your numbers, I might be too low on intensity for my tank at 75%. I got 80 gal RedSea Reefer 350 with two XP30 G4 Pros at 9 inches above the water.

I am trying to grow SPS specially acros.

How deep is your tank? SPS like bright light but still these LED's can burn everything if too bright. How are your colors currently? Any issues?

My tank is 22 inches deep. I just switched from a smaller 60 gal tank where I could not keep acro with color. Most of them turned brown.

I have had the new tank for 4 weeks. Colors, that I have not seen for months, are coming back. I started at 50% and are now at 55%. I see no burned tips. I plan to go up to 75% over the next 4 weeks.

This thread motivated me to get a PAR meter (Seneye Reef) and actually measure my tank with 2x Radion G4 Pro with Diffusers at 55% on AB+

I think I should increase to 75% soon.

How difficult would be for you to measure the same, but without the diffusers? I was always wondering how much did the diffuser "cost" in PAR.

I hope to have something by Friday, but it's definitely on my radar.
