thanks ,
Since that discussion , I have turned down most of my colors to below 20 percent.
I i know run RB , BL at close to 100 , and CW around 70.
I have also added two 36" t5 ATI blue+ bulbs .

So my tank now has a definite blue tone to it all the time , which i am beginning to really like .

Since turning my leds down , especially ther neutral white and cool whites i have noticed a darkening in coral color which is perfect..

Hey.

Looks good. I like the color. I run Kessel's and have been debating adding a couple of T5's but have been trying to give just Led's a go. I have only just started to get my Parameters in order so going to wait another month or two.

Looking good keep it up.

wow , its been months since an update .

Well , besides the pis below ,, what else is new ....hmmmmm

Well i have been eating through Ca reactor media , Also getting close to empty on my first C02 bottle.
Seems the tank is very stable now , just sticking to the same old routine . 40g water changes every 2 weeks.

still running 2 mitras leds , and 4 blue plus 36" bulbs .

On water change day i had 2 tablespoons of Pottassion from brightwell , and every few days i add 2 drops of luguls.

No other dosing products of any sort.

Also been working on my Truck , and shes on the road !!!



and tank shots from this week
