Hey everyone. I just recently got an AI Prime 16 and tested the PAR on it today. It was a headache trying to research what kind of schedule I should go off of. I ended up sort of mimicking the schedule recommended by BRS. I found the PAR levels they recommended too high for my LPS dominant Waterbox 20. Lost a few coral but hoping they’ll come back.

I have my light set 10” above the water. These tests were ran with the flow turned off. I’m pretty satisfied with these settings and impressed with the balances spread for the light!

I know this is an old thread, but what were you PAR readings with the settings you have? Thanks
Never mind! Should have looked at the picture better!!! Haha
