13 inches from light in water 350 par
17 inches from light in water 200 par
20 inches from light in water 150 par

Granted these lights don’t give off the nicest of spectrums i believe as my previous AI primes did
But for the money great par good lights can grow sps if you run on max

Adding a light bar like orphek will make a massive difference in colors imo
