Hi guys
I have a 5ft tank which has been set up about a year now and every things has been fine until the last 4 or so months now.
i have two 80w t5's
one 36w t8
which the timeings are t8 comes on at 1pm till 6pm then 10pm till 11pm
the t5 comes on at 2pm till 10pm
so the lights are on for 10hours over all
i have a pub co2 canister with an inline diffuser. also used a drop checker which is green when lights come on. (how ever my solenoid has broken recently so having to turn on co2 manually)
i have a APS e1400 filter and a Rena x4 filter
i have 2x 1000lph pumps one with a spray bar with both outlets and the other on is at the opposite side at the back pointing length ways.
i have a top layer of sand
middle layer of tetra complete
and a bottom layer of coco peat
I dose with salts from aquarium food
and do a weekly water change of 50% of there abouts.
Dont know what to do.
should i do a three day black out, or reduce the lighting time just need someone to guide me in the right direction.
many thanks
Louis
