Most SW equipment and stuff usually dosent come with directions lol...
Wat do u mean they measured par at 12" above the waterline? Was this graph on the site...
U want to measure par below the waterline! Where ur coral will be getting the light! Ur light will be 12" off the tank at least i would think....
Leds lose a lot of their par when they hit the water, i think its cause the water reflects it back but anyways...
My leds would meause in the 1000-1500par out of water. When measuring below, they would lose most of that! I cant remeber the numbers cuz it was awhile ago.
