I have a red sea c max 260 t5 lights. And I wanted to know what my par reading are. I use two reef spec actinic that are 22000k and one coral life blue light atinic. I also have a reef spec pink. I also use 2 reef spec 15000k blue white. I just wanted to know if it's too much for the coral I have or just right.
And I don't know where to go rent a par reader


I have a few hammers a ,torch, soft corals and one montipora.

 
I’ve never worried about par with T5, it’s honestly hard to over do it with T5. How are the corals responding?
 
The all have good color. None of them are bleaching and they're extending good
