Update on my reef:

I'm not sure if the current lights are giving me crappy PAR, or maybe I need to run carbon. My zoas haven't been doing well for awhile. Originally I thought it might be due to high nitrates / phosphates but those both tested out fine. I'm looking to rent a PAR meter from an LFS so I can check these bad boys. It's sad, the initial response from the corals was pretty good with these lights. Now the zoas aren't doing well.

I had mixed results with the currents on my tank. For a while everything loved it and then overnight it all went sideways. Have you looked at the LED’s to see if you have any burnt areas? I noticed quite a few of my blues had burnt circles in the lens. Just a thought.
 

Just grow it: Have you ever added CO2 to your reef tank?
