Controlling LED strengths

[top shelf]

I think that's a great way to place it and makes a lot of sense to me TOP SHELF! Thank you!

This is maxspects par readings for our light, granted they tend to exaggerate a bit but gives you a good idea of what par levels are at different depths. Plus a good visual for what I attempted to explain.

I have the R420 with an Apex PAR meter. This combo is very nice, at least for me. I felt that if I just started to throw corals into my tank without having some idea of PAR levels, I was setting myself up for failure. I am, of course, a rank newbie.

Thanks TOP SHELF... I'll try to keep any SPS within 12 inches and within 20 inches altho I think if I am using the 120 degree that the spread is wider but power less so many closer to top.

Even with the 120° so long as you keep them to the top they should be alright.
