What are your intensity settings, lense angle, manufacturer panel decription?

I think that looks pretty nice. My higher light acros seem to love 300-400 PAR (which you have a couple spots for) while in general 200-300 makes my SPS and other acros look and grow well and you have that covered of the majority of the rock. I also like that you have some spots with 100 PAR so if you need to acclimate or if you get something really cool but need under 200 PAR you have it. I have some SPS and LPS that just don't care for anything much above 100, they start to bleach, so cool you have that option.
