Sjoerd his reef

Best accomplished with a PAR meter
Any suggested numbers offered could be detrimental to your coral
Possibility that API may be able to offer values but every tank differs in height, length, type of specimens/coral making it hard to target
Thanks for thinking with me But there are no rental par meters in my area. The cheapest to buy is a seneye reef... and that seems a bit overkill for one time use.. thats why i would be happy with an estimate. Just as there has been reviews with the setting lps/sps.

For me, a par meter is available from a local reef club. I also believe BRS loans them for a returnable deposit.

I life in the Netherlands lol... dont think BRS Will loan me one ;) and there are no other options then buying one or get more general intel regarding par and intensity setting per presetting. Or am i missing an option?

Hi everyone,

My name is Sjoerd i am a reefer from the Netherlands. My instagram is reefing_physio. I have a 1 year old reef tank 525 litres. And I am still a newbie trying to figure this all out. An overview of the tank below. With some pictures.

Equipment:
Red sea skimmer
Uv heli max 2 36w.
2x gyre 330
Powerfilter
2x ati straton
Doser
Activated carbon
Macro rock
Marine pure spheres and a Block.
2 filter socks 100 micron and 200 micron


Water values
Fosfate0.08
Nitrate 10
Kh 9.9
Mg 1380
Ca 470

Corals: sps ( 4 acroporas,1 millepora) Challic, favitis,2 stylophoras, favitis, calustrea, Duncan, acan,

Extra: pink bubble tip

Fish: 2 clown fish, lawnmower blenny, manderin and a few other fish i cant remember the English names.. will get back to you on that :).

So far i just defeated dinoflagellates! Yay! And the tank seems to be back on track.

For nog i am looking for information regarding par and intensity settings for the ati straton lights. I will add a picture of my current settings. I run different settings per section (back and Middle set at lps/sps and front set to lps) to try to perfect the range for all corals. I have not found a review yet that shows the different par ratings per pre-settting.

When the lights turn on i will make a wide shot.

Happy to meet you all,

The Reefing_physio
