Radion gen 3 questions

Hello all! I got the gen 3 lights in yesterday, my tank is 48xby24x21 so I decided to hang them 9" off the water. We'll the hanging kit I think is sub par... You would think they would have many options for hanging your lights. Anyway so I made my own fixtures and they turned out absolutely amazing at this point I can knock them out so fast I could probably start another business lol.
My main question is how high should my LEDs be on after acclimating, like should I never go past 75%? This will be a sps tank so it will require strong lighting but I don't have a par meter so I'm not sure what numbers I am getting 9" above the water on a 21" tank.
Any input is appreciated! Thanks guys

Hey man, the light mount and aquascape looks great. Is that all the rock you picked up from me? I have the Gen 3 Pros and plan on going up to 50% during acclimation. After that, I may bump up it up to 60-65% depending on how my coral react. I think that is the key.

Here's a link to when Wes upgraded to the Gen 2 Pros. He has PAR measurements which should be similar to your Gen 3s.
