You'll hear this talk of "99% algae free"... mehhh i doubt it... all planted tanks have algae.
Hey, here's another question...
Most people will agree that having your aquarium light on for too long will cause trouble (that algae again!). Eight hours of light seems to be a consensus, but does it have to be one whole 8 hour block or can it be divided into two sessions of four hours?
I'd like to enjoy my aquarium when I'm home before and after work. If the light is only on the 8 hours that I'm at work, I'll have to look at my fish in the dark.
Apart from that darn algae, are there any other reasons to limit light exposure?
That's called a light siesta and I hear it works really well. 4 on, 2 off, 4 on.
Algae needs a longer photosynthesis period to thrive, whereas plants can pick up and turn off really easily.
