that fixture will be fine for lps. it's just not as efficient as others. you can do the same job with less wattage is all.
now you have to get a good camera and post some pics!
BTW, algae is a nutrient issue. I would be doing water changes with good source water (R.O.D.I.) to combat it, not adding more eating, pooping, critters.
This is one of my problems, I don't have a RO/DI unit, and can't convince hubby into buying it yet. Can I just get the big bottles of spring water that they sell at the grocery store and use that? What's my best alternative?
