I was running 3 Geismann t5ho.

Midday x Aqua Flora x Midday

I'm adding a 4th.

Should it be a Midday or Aqua flora?
What sequence do you suggest?

Thanks
 
I have an fixture that has metal halides and 4 T5HO's and I run all 6000K Geisemann Midday bulbs. I like how it looks since the Aquaflora bulbs aren't as bright. Personally I'd do another 6000K Midday.
 
Hi Philly33 how the growth of the plants with the geisemann bulbs? I need to replace mine and thinking of getting geisemann.
I have a 72 gal tank fully planted with pressurized co2 and I was thinking of getting the same set up as the one u have now to grow HC.
 
I love them. A bit more $ but worth it. I love the mix I have midday x aqua flora x midday. I want to add another bulb but not which to add. Love the bulbs!
 
I dose Excel and Brightwell's FlorinAxis sparingly. FlorinMulti daily w/iron and Comprehensive weekly. I have an RO/DI unit that makes 150gpd. I think that and my weekly wc is the secret w/ spot dosing w/ excel. When I add excel I use a long syringe and kill 2 birds w/ 1 stone. I now have 30+ Signifer Rainbows, 5 hara hara catfish and a good clean up crew.
