Hi guys first post here, I have a red sea reefer 250 currently a mixed reef and want to move into the more exotic acropora. I've started with various montiporas, hystrix, stylophora and do have a bali slimer and sarmentosa which are all thriving. My current lighting set up is an aquatic life t5 hybrid running 4 39w t5 and 2 ai hydra 26hd. Would you guys say this is a suitable lighting set up for acros? Tenuis, microlados, millepora etc? I did measure par a few months ago and the vast majority of my rock is recieving 310-380 par. I see lots of people running very high par particularly in the US, is this needed?

Thanks and hi!
Chris.
