Should I turn my lights up?

That’s what I do and it’s perfect. Someone onYoutube tested it against a common par meter brand and the results were practically identical.

You need to pay to get the automatic level but it’s only 6$ for a month. You probably only need one month.

I personally tested it against a new model par meter and it was really close in numbers.

dang you, Newton!!!

OK So. This is what I think I'll do: Increase from 10H to 12H and switch to 40% white 80% blue.

You don't really need to increase your photoperiod. 10 hrs is good really, remember that more light and more time the light is on will give more energy to any algae too.

40/80 is a great place to start. If you find the corals like it and you want to bump it up more, that gives you some wiggle room.
