For SPS and other high-light corals, keep the colony in the top third of the water column, or step up a wattage rather than running a smaller fixture close to the substrate. Fluval has not published a separate PAR curve for the 22 W or 59 W models. Expect the 22 W to track below the 32 W figures and the 59 W to track above the 46 W figures at the same distances, but treat that as an estimate, not a measured value, until Fluval publishes one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSuitable for, and not suitable for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e reef and marine fish-only-with-live-rock tanks, soft corals and LPS across all four wattages, and SPS in the upper water column on the 32 W and larger where PAR is confirmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot suitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e freshwater planted tanks — this is a marine spectrum, not the warmer white and red spectrum a planted tank needs.
