I'm running NO fluorescent tubes on my 46 gal bow front, and I was wondering how often I should switch out the bulbs. The reason I am asking is because the tank has been set up for about 7 months with the same tubes and im noticing some diatom blooms. I always use RO/DI water for water changes and tops offs, and amm 0, trites 0, trates 10 ppm. So I figured its time to switch out the lights, is it???
