quick t-5 questions

[marcus_the_clownfish]

i have a dual t-5 coralife t-5 setup and it seems to be creating a ton of algae, is this normal?

[apedroza]

What color are the bulbs??? How old are they?? They may be contributing to your algae!!!

took the words out of my mouth, Anthony!

[marcus_the_clownfish]

not sure how old one is 14 k and the ther is actinic

[Fish4life]

probably phosphates coupled with old bulbs. reduce feed, increase flow, change bulbs, get a phosban reactor.

just my 2 cents.

cheers,

kurt

Water changes and bulb changes. Figure out a way to combat your phosphates - either feed less, grow macro in a fuge, big water changes, or phosban.
