PAR Readings - 5ft

[Aussiemarine]

Hey guys,

Got my seneye set up today and starting testing levels around the tank, I was -pleasantly surprised by the numbers but I turned the two Kessils up from 45% intensity to 75% - With the changes these are the numbers from around the tank. Running this PAR from 11am - 7pm and winding up from 9am - 11am and down from 7pm-10pm.

Tank is 5x2x3 - Lighting is 2x 2ft Atlankis plus 2x Kessil A360s pointing at the left-hand bommie and right hand rock mountain.

What does everyone think? Should I make any changes? Plans are to keep SPS in the 250-400 range and then want some LPS/Softies towards the bottom of the rocks or the shady parts or sandbed... Numbers might look a little strange but that just because of the direction the kessils are sitting.

Would there be any SPS I can put at the top where there is approx 500 PAR? Maybe a Dallas Acro?

Happy to hear any suggestions!

I think most sps will go at the top. Id say you would have to slowly move it up to get used to it. Like 250par.and work its way acclimated to 500

Thanks I was thinking that only problem is with the structure I will probably need to glue them in place so might be a bit tricky to move them?

We all glue the plugs to rock work
