Well here it goes, my tank is 120 gallons the measurement from bottom of lights to sand bed is 32" inches and from bottom of lights to top of live rock is 24" inches. So my corals are in a depth of 24" to 32" from bulbs.
I have for lights;
2- 175 watt 14,000
1- 110 watt vho AquaSun
1- 110 watt vho actinic white
2- 110 watt vho super actinic blue
Total of 790 watts.
My problem is I dont see much growth with my corals or any purple coralline algae growing. Do I need to upgrade to 250 watt metal halide lamps. I see all these other tanks and they look so great with coralline algae growing. My water tested;
Gravity 1.025
Phos--0
Cal--465
Alk--2.0
PH--8.2
Nitrite--0
Nitate--0
Ammonia--0
Any advise would be great, thanks.....
