XR30 G6 Blue Par question

[Mrcote1]

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has Radion XR30 G6 blues and a PAR meter? Im running my lights at a max of 20% and wondering what PAR id be getting (bottom, middle and top).

I have 2 XR30s over a 5' x 2' x 2' tank

I put a picture of the light profile below

Very low.

I ran 6 XR15 Pros (3 XR30s but better spread) on my 6x3x2 and ran them at 90% schedule. I was at 100% all violets and blues, 50-60% for each white, and then 25% red and green.

This gave me around 400 PAR at the top of rocks and 170-180 PAR on the sand.

Oh wow, maybe the brightness of the tank is super deceiving then because at the 20% the tank seems extremely bright
