Bleaching carpet

[Flightpipe]

well now i am confused...... It was the ummm 70 cube with two blue gigs one very large one smaller and it had a bit of a algea (macro) problem, and was using vortech on lagoon mode i think. I thought that was sugertooth. But whatever he, she, it has some great looking tanks!

Now that is funny. That is her tank, but for sure not her voice. Now I understand that confusion

I had forgotten I have some ss hose clamps in my sump the screws had begun to rust out. I pulled them out and replaced with zip ties and im now running some carbon. All other inverts are ok softies and lps seem ok. maybe that is why I have been killing sps. (clam is ok too)

I am still working on this problem and after talking with The Grim Reefer about T5HO bulbs I think I may just be kicking out to much par. I have pulled out two of my highest par bulbs so i will be running 6 bulbs instead of eight. Now I will just wait again to see what happens. It does make a lil sense going from 4 10k's and 4 actinic to 7 bulbs with high par values and one super actenic. So hopefully this will do something positive!
