Ok, i know that answer is - get a par meter, but, this is impossible, so, all i have is some opinions, toughts, and well educated guesses....
So, help with yours
Tank is 130x60x60, flow is 2x jebao sow8 pumps (about 17000lph total), in random mode, and return is blau 4kdc...
Lights are 2 popbloom rs90, and, recently, 4x54w, only 2 blue plus (not ati but similar) in function.
Light time is from 10am to 10pm, t5 from 12 to 8pm. Led intensity is blue 100%, white 30%.
I wondering is it too much light?
Nothing is wrong, all corals doing good, varying from ok to great, some zoas are half open, torches, euphilias, calustreas, mushrooms etc are great, fully opened.....
Some plain red mushrooms are 10-15cm in diameter, enormous size..
Only real problem is cyano on sandbed, which appear recently, and can be related to adding t5, and glass needs to be cleaned daily.
Other parameters are also spot on - 5 no3, <0.02 po4, ca 450, mg 1500, alk 11.
But, i wonder, am i blasting my tank with too much light, can i get better growth or coloration if i lower intensity..... I feel that this is too much, but....
Sorry for.long post, hoping to hear some opinions...
Thanx!
