Coral QT tank lighting

[innovusaquaculture]

So.... I'm going to get my shipment tomorrow fron the WWC live sale.... I am really excited!

I want to put all this in QT while I decide where it is all going. I've set up two 20 gallon QT tanks.

My question is on lighting. I want to make sure I don't over or under do it. Attached is a Seneye graph from the bottom of the tank. Both tanks are identical

Please comment

100 PAR on the bottom sounds pretty good to me. I doubt that is too much nor too little for any coral in the short term.

Here they are with the @WWC corals in it.

For SPS corals your looking to have 250-350 in PAR....I cant remember what BRS was recommending for LPS and softies since I have so few in my tanks. Experience over the years with SPS with PAR numbers in that range have proven to be a pretty good target range.
