I have just upgraded my lighting from the cheap-O's to TEK T5 ho 4 lamp ready fit fixture, and have had prob's the last few days
the lights were installed about 4" above the new glass lids i had to buy, and yesterday after coming home the temp was 85 when it had been steady between 79-80. I thought t5 T5 produced no heat ???
I also have tons of bubbles on the intakes that are new, is this from new higher lighting???
Last but not least the 50lbs of texas holey (sp) base rock (also called limestone i think) has lots of brown tint to it almost resembeling what i have seen refered to as diatoms??
I decided on T5's after lots of consideration in an attempt to convert my 55fowlr into a reef, nothing to exotic zoo's shroom's maybe a anomene or ?????
water parimeters coming, but no new aditions and tank has been very stable
Thanks for any imput
