I was thinking of changing the type of lighting I use. Looking for suggestions.
I currently have a 48x36x24 rimless tank. I keep 95% SPS with success. My current lighting is the Orphek Atlantic V1. I have (3) units over hanging over the tank to get full coverage. I have OK color (running the coral color mode) but think it could be better. Coral growth is OK but again could be better (compared to other reefers I know). Lights currently sitting 12"15" above the water. Par ranges from 450 (top) to 325 (bottom).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
