Awesome, thank you!
Depending on where you are, I'd like to use it next.
I'm in Downtown Orlando. I'd like to wait on my upgraded Gen3 Pro Radion before I complete my testing - my old unit will be @ ecotech tomorrow at 3pm.
PS - Any pointers on how to best use this in the tank? IE - do you use a stick/plastic dowel to measure in the tank?
Does anyone have a link for a PAR reference? I found one the other day - it was a very cool chart that listed corals by PAR requirements. It had a slider with the PAR value, and then on the right hand side, it'd display corals that'd thrive.
Anyone know where I can find a PAR reference? Thanks!

That's fine with me. I'm in no hurry. Just let me know when you're done. I had the meter a few months ago and it came with an acrylic strip someone made to hold the sensor. I'm guessing you don't have that?

No sir. Any good PAR references you recommend?

Basically all I did was take a picture of the tank and write the values on the photo. I did this a few times at different intensities. Each value is where I placed the sensor as close to the surface of the aquascape as I could.

Thanks, I did the same for my scape. Not quite as precise because I was using my aqua tongs to hold the meter... LOL
I'm ready to hand it off if you're ready for it!

Still lots to learn about the hobby but I have amassed a great collection of real beauties. I have broken past the stage of keeping things alive and now there actually growing out. Which is a big hurdle for many beginners I must admit. Good information and advise is hard to get sometimes and the club has done wonders with respect to quality advise and help in the hobby.
THANKS Orlando Reef Educators Organization!!!!
