what do you this of these PAR readings?

[Webmanny]

Hi all,

I just got my new PAR sensor and dove right in to measure my tank. I have attached a picture of my tank with the readings and wanted to get your feedback.

Summary:
Top center = 535
Top sides = 365
Middle = 250 - 300
Bottom = 50 - 75

I would like to be able to keep SPS, LPS and some soft corals.

I know PAR meters don't do a great job measuring the intensity of LEDs. I would guess you would be fine as long as you put them up top.

Please also note that I have the white LEDs dimmed down to 40% and the blues to 80%. I'm thinking of measuring again tomorrow, but increasing the white ones a bit more to see.
