quiksilver5768 Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 You do realize that your gona have to make a special hood or something for a 55 since it wont fit on your tank... Toy, Thats weird how your corals dont look too good. How are your chemicals? Iodine, Calcium etc..? I found that when I started to put iodine in my tank more consistently, like every week instead of just testing it when low and adding it then, increased my coral growth and appearance greatly. Oh yea...and I finally successfully split my mushrooms. I put a rock in bwteen and now I have half dollar size heads from what used to be just one big 4 inch hairy mushrom. I got kind of bored just lookg at that one big mushrooms. haha. Link to comment
Toyfreek Posted May 9, 2002 Share Posted May 9, 2002 I am realitively certain it's the lighting. all the signs I have seen happen over and over again in poorely lit systems. They just aren't as bright as under More intense light. I believe I will try adding another 32W smartlamp retro maybe that will do it. Toy Link to comment

fish04 Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 You won't have anything in those terms if you had cured rock....you have nothing producing ammonia so ther is nothing to cycle to nitrates. The cycle ony "goes" if you have an ammoina source such as die off, fish waste etc. Link to comment
