32" SB Reef Lights with Acropora

[Lunar Mike]

I have a 36x24x16" shallow reef with the 32" timer version light. Got into Acros recently and want to give them as much light possible.

I have been keeping whites at 30-45% and Blues at 50-70%. I'd run the lights at 100% if I could without damaging them.

What are yours set at? Some Par readings/info would be great.

I run 100% blue and about 20% white. Unsure of PAR but I have some acros growing just fine at the bottom of my 24” deep tank.

Ok, thanks.

SO I have a 180 galloon tank and run 3 16in basic SBreefs. I run all of them at 100% intensity for both channels. I get about 700+ par at surface at 3/4 way down where first corals are I get around 500-550 par then down to about half I get around 350-400 than 1/4 down I gte around 250-300 and then bottom around 150ish. Hope this helps.
