I saw this pic somewhere here that had par values of leds at all levels in a reef tank anyone know where this is located?
 
What I'm looking for was an actual pic of a tank with par values labeled on the pic I know I seen it here somewhere
 
I made one for my lumentek pro 240. It will be very different from another type or brand.
 
I usually google image search for them. I have good luck with it.
And pickup man is correct. The will be very very very different fwiw.
The color of your rock changes par too. And back wall.
 
I wanna say it was for the black box leds which is what I'm looking for and was just white text on the pic like 150 on the sand 350 up on top of these rocks 75 over in the corner I think I have found the information I needed though but would still like to find the image also
 
I've only seen one for the Bb in lux. Not par.
Post it if you find it though please
 
Here is one I did a couple years ago, not the one your ofter but may help

These PAR reading were taken with all powerheads/return pump off with Apogee mq-200 meter. Lights 8" above water.
[Blue/white @100%][under waterline 1100][5"845][10"565][15"370][20"195][25"140][Blue/white@50/50][under waterline 480[5"330][10"240][15"145][20"90][25"35][Blue/white@60/40][under waterline 465][5"290][10"220][15"155][20"100][25"62]

Found this info online for the galaxy hydro 165w black boxes hope it helps someone else in the future :-)

Hello , I'm borrowing my local club's (Jax Reef.org) light meter tomorrow. I understand a general setting is around 100 at the bottom,around 400 at the top. Is this about right? I haven't used a light meter before so this is all new to me. Thanks for any OP's
PS. hope the plug is ok with You guys. We have about 30 members. LOL
