I have my 29 gallon Tank for a while now and my sand is turning Brown. I was wondering why it is and how I can fix this and how long it will take to become normal. I am assuming lighting is the problem, but I barely put them on until I get some coral.
Lighting : 65 w pc actinic
65 w pc 10,000 k
Before my tank cycled I filled it with tap water and conditioned it before adding the salt. After my tank had cycled, I used bottled water to top off and have been doing so for a while. I do not keep my lights on that much...I hardly turn them on during the week and on the weekends, I turn them on for about 8 or 9 hours. I have 35 lbs of lr, 3 turbo snails and 3 hermit crabs along with a cleaner shrimp and 2 percula clowns.
I also looked through the threads for this problem but gave up after looking for a while.
Thanks.
