No, sir. There is no such thing as too much light. I have a forty gallon reef with 175mh 20,000 kelvin rating with 2x watt pc lighting. And the only time i had problem with algae when my spectrum went out of wack due to old bulbs. But it cleared up week after i changed the bulbs.

You might want to get that pH up around 8.0 at the least.

Yes, It does.

Yea...lol. I have like twenty extra ones they keep getting filled by small hermits i have no clue where the smalls ones come from. I didn't buy them. Well, thanks for the info. -Bicolor

Did you buy pre-cured liverock? Then if you didn't and your putting the rock into an established tank and thats really bad. Because all of the die from shipping and other stuff will cause your water quality to drop. are you getting ammonia spikes at all? -Bicolor

I believe you have green and red hair algaes growing in your tank. You might want to check the phosphate and nitrates levels in your tank. This might be your problem in this case. If thats is your problem, you might want to do 10% water changes everyother day, with RO/DI water. If you don't do...

Ooooooooooooh, So your saying it has the intensity as if it were 500watts. Still you need the right spectrum.

Your Welcome. Yea, but don't just turn a blind eye on the subject. Check on him periodically, for maybe this can actually turn into a problem. Maybe try getting him a bubble-tip anemone. See how he reacts to that. Remember also anemones also need good lighting, as they also have symbiotic algae...

For what he is putting in there he really doesn't need that much lighting. -Bicolor

Yes, same here. Next time post directly to the thread, It's much easier. -Bicolor

Check the phosphate levels and nitrate levels in your tank, that might be your problem in your case. If that is your problem, you should do a 10% water change every other day with RO/DI water. If you don't do it with RO/DI water, you might just be putting nitrates and phosphates back into the...

Thats very common for clowns. In the wild they won't venture more than a foot away from there host anemone. So basically it's treating that rock as its anemone, for protection. As long as its it is eating and showing no signs of stress, I wouldn't worry about. Next time, you might want to post...
