I’m looking at adding 3 k7 pro to supplement what I have already, anyone have any real world par readings from a deep 24-36” deep tank?

I have a 36" deep tank with one K7 on it now. I have two more K7s coming today (if USPS doesn't delay it any further) and just got a PAR-Wise meter. Once I get them set up I will post my results here with comparison to the Apex PAR meter and Seneye PAR meter.

Look forward to see the results I want to pull the trigger on these to give an extra boost to my current lighting.

I can't comment on the k7 pro but I can tell you even at like 60% blur and uv and 10 white the k7 mini pushes 250 to 300 par on a 18 inch deep tank. They push massive par.
That 250-300 par is that center under the light what’s the reading out to the edges?

Well, the lights came but there was no "X" bracket or arm despite the website stating it was included. I think there is some communication breakdown in the Chi-English translation. I have an email in to them. Awaiting an answer. I'll keep you posted.

Roughly 200 around the edges, its a 20g cube so not a huge footprint.

Bought a couple Noopsyche K7 Pro3s for a 120 that's in build stage so I can not comment on par readings, but I did came across this R2R posting. Hope it helps

My minis were missing one arm but the noopsych rep on this forum sent me one after I messaged him. I'd pm him.

Lol that's funny. Mine had the arm but missing the xbracket and 5 screws. Message @Zach B and he should take care of you. He was responsive and sent out the parts quickly.

This is exactly what I was looking for!

Aslong as i can get 100+ par on the sand bed at 30” I’ll be happy. Im adding 3 to blend in with my 4 kessil lights to boost par in the fringes of my setup without adding 2 more kessils

I had the same problem. I ordered the Light bundle and there was neither bracket. So I emailed. They sent the arm but no X bracket. So I emailed, they blamed the shipper for having the package returned to them. Im still waiting for an X bracket. It been 3 months.

Have you written to @Zach B about it? Might be a quick way to get that resolved?
