Need Help !!!!
I have a nuvo 30 L tank
I have the mounts for two radions xr15 gen 4s
From the light to my sand bed its about 19 to 20 inches
On the top layer of rocks I have my acros, a torch and a toadstool
mid level I have some montis some zoas and chalices
bottom level I have a brain coral and some zoas and the prized war paint coral

I do not have my par meter yet till it ships in a few days.
The tank is about 3 and a half months running.

I currently am using the coral lab ab+ template put had the intensity to 45 ,
I think this may be to high? My Scoly was shrinking a little and all my parameters are normal and I even tried to give the Scolys some shade.
I noticed some bleaching on my monti when I had the monti up to high and the intensity was at 55.

Should I keep the intensity at 45 or drop down to 35 to 40 range.

I moved my candy cane coral to bottom level in corner
