Lux meter, help me figure this out?

Here are my readings right now with my seneye. This is about 6" below the water

Do you have SPS? Your lux seems to be lower than mine (Then again, mine was at the water surface), which makes me think I need to reduce mine a little

If I crank the white up the lux raises a bunch. The blue spectrum which helps push the PUR number up doesn't produce nearly as much lux

Yup. The white channel contains all the colors, blue to red , blue naturally only contains the blues.

The pur estimate for generalist coral the seney is set for is in the blue region.

Attached is my settings for the highest point of the day. My white is low.

What do you think?

I do. maybe I'll reduce the blue once I get the corals in, tank is currently empty.

thanks for all your help @saltyfilmfolks - you are always there when I need help! <3
