This might be a somewhat stupid question... but I'm going to rent a PAR meter soon and I want to do a whole bunch of tests while I've got it but I currently have coral in the tank.
For the sake of the questions let's assume the corals get 200-300 PAR right now.
How quickly would I damage my zoas, LPS, and SPS if I turn the light up to 500-700 PAR? Is a minute okay?
Is there ANY amount of PAR that could bleach/severely damage the corals in a matter of a few seconds? Within reason of course... not talking about 100,000 PAR.
