I'm looking to increase the par of my tank to accommodate some sps , in doing so, the par reading of my euphyllia will also increase (garden is bottom left). They are currently doing well, but I wanted to check in and see if they will be okay with the higher par if I were to increase it, thanks.

Image #1, without the increase par readings: 160, 100 , 220
Image #2, with the increase par readings: 250, 100, 300, 380

They should be fine with SLOW increases of par. When I say slow I mean SLOOOooooow. It took me 6 mo to increase my par by 100pts. Corals like stability even with light. Take your time and do it right.

Keep in mind LPS’ top range is about 250 so be careful when you increase the par.
