Ai Grow Blade over 20g Long settings

[windsor_salt]

I have a 21inch grow blade sitting right on top of my 20 gallon long. Here are my current settings. I have a mix reef and want to make sure I’m not frying my corals.

Which app are you using? My mobius app looks different and has pre set configurations that you can use. Start low on the intensity and increase it over time.

What par are you at at the depth you will be growing coral?

Always Test par, especially with LeDs

Does that App show how many watts the light is using at those settings?

No, only %

Blades are pretty powerful and have high PAR

I have a 20 long as well with a single blade grow. Was hoping someone eventually had par numbers but looks like someone will have to bite the bullet and rent a meter

This is around 25watts at peak. My light is right at the top of the tank with the stock brackets. Was wishing someone with a similar setup can chime in. I don’t have the bucks right now for a par meter.

I have 2 blade grows going over a 15 cube, but that's in the build process as we type.

If you're concerned about frying your corals, 25 watts won't be frying anything.

No, only %

If you go under Live Demo it does tell you the wattage rate.
