So this past weekend I was able to purchase one of the two Jolt Frags from Jason Fox. I wanted to document the growth of my frag since I have not seen anyone perform this with the Jolt. When I get home I will test all of my parameters and post them as well.

Both are super high up. About 9ish inches below the radions.

A buddy told me it likes 250 par which had me scratching my head.

Do you run AB+ and if so what's the max intensity you're running your lights at?

Par isn't always relevant. It's a relationship between par, pur, and nutrients. High par that might translate into high pur is relative to the nutrients available. When the light hits the chlorophyll in your corals, it activates the machine of energy production and growth. That machine has to be adequately fueled. If the engine isn't turned on hard, then it won't require many nutrients. If that machine is full throttle then it requires a lot of nutrients. It's a relationship.

Those frags look like they’ll be very nice after they grow out a bit.

I need some frags. Be nice to have the tank after 16 weeks!!

Cody, so you mean I need to put gas in my car to get it to go?! :)
