I know. Before this becomes a flame thread on multiple variables and whatnot I’m just looking for some readings at water level for sps under LEDs.
I have a Noo-Psyche k7v3 able to blast ungodly amounts of light but I’m trying to dial in a nice healthy amount for my 20g. Currently I had readings of 380ppfd under white LED readings and 480ppfd under the blue LED reading on Photone. Everything is doing ‘Okay’ but I’m watching some color fade which means I’m not completely optimized on this light.
In the past I was in a larger city with a strong reefing group. However I now live in a smaller town and borrowing equipment like an apogee is just near impossible. So I’m just trying to get the right numbers. A store about an hour from me had radions turned up to 1300ppfd on blue channels at the water. That nano was four inches deeper overall but the corals were more than happy.
