Is it turning white at the top or from the bottom up?

move it down

 

[ddmiller38]

looks like its going from bottom up..

its receding. u may not hv enough flow if ur profile is correct, with only 1 koralia 1050 covering a 40 gallon breeder.

Try either flow or moving it in the tank

I had bleaching issues when i had my 2 150w mh over my 40 breeder.

If it is bottom up I'd agree on the flow opinion. You should try moving to somewhere with different flow!

I will move it down half way.. I will turn one of the koralias toward it and see what happens..both of the koralias are on a wave maker 3 mins on and 3 mins off


thanks
