How and why would having your lights to high or to low make a difference in algae growth or coral growth and how do you know how high I should have them
 
I've got LEDs like 6-8" off the water surface of a 24" deep tank.
 
Not going to lower them anymore, I don't want the water splash on the lenses.
Raising them, gives more spread on the tank.
 
Ian having some bleaching issues with my sps since I can't dim them down should I raise my lights?
