Kessil a160we

[sharkbait1122*]

Does anyone have any practical par information about the Kessil a160we. Mine sits 9 inches off the water and the tank is 19 inches high. I have mostly softy and lps coral and am currently running the light at 55% intensity. Looking to see if anyone knows what kind of par values the light gives at different intensities

 

[Spare time]

I do not have the par info, but you should be able to run it at 100%, 8 inches off the water, to cover a 20x20 inch area. Kessil's choose your kessil page on their website is the guide I typically refer to

That’s a good starting point, but observe your corals, they’ll tell you if you’re providing enough light. Increase intensity about 2-5% a week, wait a week and increase again if the signs are okay.
