Hey welcome aboard.
I am going to say some things that may be opposite of what you are suggesting.
I started with a 24G Aquapod an AIO tank.
I wish I had gone with a non all in one tank either a 45G cube(mnat suggested) or a 30G ...that was reef ready...
I pay 190 for my fios. 3 boxes with whole house DVR all movies channels 35/up and download speeds. Plus international plan that allows my wife like 300 minutes to Italy for 5bucks. I have had great experience with customer service. Recently I called with question about service/pricing and...
Can you flip the two fixtures. The way you have it now the LEDs hit the top rocks and that is it. If you moved them to the front they would be over the deeper corals and the back could be the T5. Wouldn't be a problem for the T5 to be higher because you won't loose that much par in the air ...
I don't see how that is not enough light for those in the front. Maybe take a picture of the tank.
The only thing I can think is what if you reversed the LED to the front so they penetrate deeper and the T5 in the back over the shallow part? That said I have T5s above my 120 with clams on the...
I agree with what Nick said...unless you are shading something a 10K ATI bulb should do pretty well providing enough light without the LEDs. Is there any chance it is not the light? Maybe it is in the path of some softy or something? Just throwing it out there.
Well we are eventually going to outgrow this planet. For sure it is controversial but it is something we should all think about.
BTW I wasn't trying to argue politics just people who ignore the trueth shown by data because it doesn't jibe with their agenda.
I did my best to walk that fine...
Millions or is it billions of cars, electric plants, houses all burning fossil fuels. The evidence exists. Crap like ooooh 1 volcano makes more co2 then all the cars is bull poop. Has been debunked, yet a lot of politicians say things like what you just spouted.. Prove it. Well they have there...
I disagree Paul in FLA for instance in a lot of the rivers that home to manatees you see a large algae blooms that had never been there before. While you may be right in saying that grasses do a good job of using nitrates there is going to be a runoff that is just not taken in by the grasses...
It is bacteria that is benificial for the tank. I add a little once in a while doesn't hurt. Very good ideas. Yes it is used to cycle the tank, but a little extra won't hurt since you are adding bioload.
