Hey @Dana whats up. I have a question for you and the R2R team. I wonder how much surface agitation affects PAR reaching my corals.
For example, I use my seneye PAR meter to get a range of 300-320 on X sps while flow is off. I then turn my flow on. I keep my surface like a raging river. When i look at the numbers with the meter still running, the PAR hops around a ton and goes even as low as 150 depending.
Am i short changing my corals' DLI and growth by having such an active surface with such random, often lower PAR values?
