This is my first real attempt at "reefing". I haven't really accumulated many corals, and want to start growing my collection out.
I have a waterbox 100.3 (36x24x21), with (2) AI Prime 16HD, running the BRS profile (dialed down by about 25% of their settings).
These readings are ~2 inches below the halfway mark of my waterline. The par meter was placed on a plateau rock structure which is in the middle of the footprint of the tank. Other areas at this level are roughly the same, or lower on the edges. At the substrate level, readings are approx.half.
It's set up to have 12pm-5pm as peak (~150-160par) with 2 hour ramps on both sides.
I'd like to run mostly LPS, and a few SPS. Does this look good? Should peak be shorter? longer? Shorter ramps? Open to input
