Anyone tried the photone app on their phone?
I’m getting 3000 ppfd at the light and 68 at the surface of water , does the height of the lamp really loose so much power?
I’m just about to order 2x rs90 leds because I’m sure my par isn’t high enough for my maxima and one of my montis is bleaching.
The lamps a maxspect r6 and currently sits 30cm to the cluster from the water surface , I can lower it down to the wings so the clusters would be 15cm to the water, would this massively increase par as the app suggests? I mean why does the light lower so much through air?

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
