hey I have three xr15 gen 4 pros over my tank and par readings seem low.light is 12 inches above water and at 50% Intensity 15 inches below water line im getting 51 par according to the apex neptune par sensor at 14k setting.this seems really low any ideas,i have some water agitation on top but 51 par seems way low for this light
 
You are measuring PAR at 27in and 50% intensity, so that might not be a bad #.

BRS measured an avg of 214 at 18in with the 30pro.
