Light Intensity?
Hello folks:
I have a 55 gallon tetra/ram planted tank with a DIY CO2 generator and 2 65 Watt 6700K Coralife bulbs. Plant growth is ok, but some of the plants seem to be 'reaching' for the light. Also they've taken on a bit of a yellowish/light green hue, different then the nice dark green that they had when I bought them. Would increasing the light to 2 96 Watt bulbs be the thing to do? Water quality is good: pH 6.2, no nitrates, minimal nitrates and a lot of phosphate which I deal with by 3 weekly water changes. I also have Florite (sp?) gravel and use Seachem's Florish Excel and Trace. Thanks for any info. |
