I have noticed a lot more intensity with the reflectors. Wish I could measure it. Running shorter or staggered lighting periods, plus have them fairly high. My acro,s are responding well but a purple cap had lightened considerably and of all things, two different milli colonies are showing some signs of light stress. Yet a green cap, higher than the purple looks much better.

A smaller milli colony fragged from one of them but on the bottom of the tank has extemely nice colors in comparison.

Of course a bunch of different colored mushrooms ae just loving it.

Weird, is all I can say.
Strangly enough the bleaching in my tank was kind of random as well

Here's a pic as the tank is now under cloudy conditions.
