Thought I'd share with you my results from my tanks PAR results from last week.

Using metal halide/t5 combo with Radium 250w 20k bulbs. Bulbs are about 3 months old and are 12 inches off water. I was pretty impressed! 530 was the highest reading

Are any of those readings above the waterline at the water surface? If not any chance you would mind through the number on here for some peak and edge surface readings? [HASHTAG]#par[/HASHTAG] [HASHTAG]#lux[/HASHTAG] [HASHTAG]#meter[/HASHTAG]
 
None are above water level..

And sorry I'm a newb, don't know how to acess those hash tags on r2r? [emoji23]
 
You should just be able to click them like a link. Are you using the r2r app or website?

You could also run a search on the forum for the terms lux and meter. ;)
