So we rented a Par Meter...and now have questions.
Running 2 Kessil a360x on a 4’ tank and one a360x on each a 20g AIO and 35g AIO. (All Waterbox) All our lights are currently 8” off the water. We just picked a schedule and kinda went with it but as we add more corals we had to know what PAR they are actually at. Good thing cuz the little tank was high and the big tank low.
1: How long should the tank be at target PAR daily? Should they be scheduled to go up and over target slowly throughout the day for an average or should they ramp up to the target PAR and then back down?
2: As corals grow in, am I correct in assuming lights would be turned up some down the road to account for shadowing?
3: Anyone have a successful Kessil a360x schedule they can share on either of these tank sizes??
