Zoos bleaching under t-5's

[scoutmaniak]

Hey guys,

Well I got some "Green Bay Packers" a week ago, and now they are starting to bleach under my t-5's!! They were under MH's in the store, so I figured they could handle the t-5's. They are kinda high in the tank, so ill just move them down and see how they improve. Has anyone else had this problem?? Ive read t-5's are comparible to MH's, and ive got 6 bulbs, soooo.... Also what kinda growth can I expect with these guys?? Thanks,

Michael

People seem to underestimate the T5s. I would move them way down and wait until they color up. You can then slowly move them to were you want. My zoas took off in growth once I added my T5s.

Thanks. I wasnt underestimate the T5s, I know they are bright, I just thought zoos loved light so I was suprized when a few were stated bleaching, lol. They dont look bad, just alitle lighter than the rest, soooo ill just move then and see what happens.
