try a card on a stick or by a 6 dollar scrapper from LFS being glass your pretty safe using a glass scraper

Get one of those Kent scrapers on a stick. That is what I use as my back glass is too think to use a mag cleaner. If your glass isn't over about 1/2 inch, I would recommend getting one of these:

I use it glued to a mag float for the front and side. Make sure you do not leave it in your tank as it will rust.

Depending on the circumstance you can use both epoxy and super glue, I prop the rock up if I'm using epoxy since it takes a while for it to cure, super glue I just squirt a ton in the gap and let it cure.

How are you obtaining the PAR readings? The meters available under a few thousand dollars are very inaccurate for doing LEDS. The LiCor is the only one I know that will give a "fairly" accurate reading... the Apogees should be avoided for LED use from what I have been told.

 

[GreshamH]

FWIW if it's an Apogee you are using, you have more PAR then that.

 

[the37thchamber]

Got the measurements from vendor ! I'll check with the vendor on what tool he used for measuring PAR )
