I have a 47x22x23 LPS/Softy tank which has two XR15 Pro's set at 70% max output during the daily lighting schedule. The corals seem to be growing fine and color is good. I am wondering if I should ramp up the intensity to 100% over time or should I stay where I am at. What would be the pluses and minuses to increasing output? Thank you!
 
I would measure with a par meter before making any output changes. If you exceed photosaturation you’ll just slow down your growth and inhibit tissue inflation.
