Hi members,

I came back yesterday from holidays, and the tank was brown .
What happened is that my timer went crazy and fro 7 days lights were on 24/7 . So diatom took the chance to break out.
Fortunately my friend passes on the 7th day of my holidays and changed my timer.
because of that I had a lot of melting on the crypts, but they will recover.
So yesterday big cleaning, trimming crypts, scrubbing all the leaves of the stauros and the crypts 80% water change cleaning tube + filter + ferts.

So I have clean everything diatoms are not growing any since my friend fixed the timer problem. Can i put back 8 hours of light and lower it to 20 cm ???

unfortunately NA Portugal had a stock problem for the cabinet, they had to produce new cabinets, so they are shipping it tomorrow and I will receive it in a week

thanks guys
cheers
