It is really nice. There isn't even a power switch. You have to have s smartphone with the app to use it.

I'll give this try.

Ok, I will try time reduction. The light is fairly new, I think I got it in June.

Here is what it looks like. The light is a Fluval Aquasky 1200 mm. I attached the lighting information.

I was having problem with algae getting on my glass, so I decided to try a phosphate remover pad. It didn't seem to help at all, so I decided to take it out. At the same time, I started doing 25% water changes about every other day. And I was also removing the filter media and rinsing it...

I have a 60 gallon African Cichlid tank that had a pleco in it. He just died, had him for 13 years. How would I go about acclimating a new one to the tank? Or could they just be put right in?

From what I understand about cichlids they like to be crouded, so I was thinking maybe 10 more.

Here is a picture of my tank.

I have a 60 gallon African tank. I currently have only 6 Africans and 1 Pleco. How many more Africans should I get? My Pleco is about 8 inches long and about 14 years old.

My Pleco is about 8 inches long, he is about 14 years old. I'll add a picture so you can see the rest.

Lol. I hear you. Just get busy with other things in life and the hobby takes a back seat. Sent from my SM-G925V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I know what caused it to blow up. Honestly it was neglect. I had the heater in the sump portion of the filter section and the filter was clogged an the water level got too low in the sump. I go through spells when I don't want to do anything to my tanks. Almost burning down my house has...

Last night the heater in my Fluval Spec V blew up and caught fire. I only had one fish in the tank, a clownfish. He died :(, I assume from the toxins from the heater. Anyway, I was wondering if any of you have had this type of thing happen and if so should I be able to clean my sand and live...

Can phosphate cause a constant algae bloom?

I started the SW tank knowing about the risks and challenges involved. I just thought I would give it a try. If it doesn't work out I'll be upset sure, but it will be ok. It wouldn't be the first stupid thing I've ever done, it probably won't be the last either. Thanks for the input everyone.

Looks like the poor little damsels are doomed then.

Looks like I'd better learn quickly then.

5 gallon, it sits on my nightstand.

I have recently just started my first SW tank. It is a Fluval Spec V, 5 gallon tank. I am using damsels as starter fish and want to put in a clownfish (Nemo). I understand that the damsels are aggressive, and it would suck if a fish that is a whole lot cheaper causes a more expensive one to die.

Its ok, thank you for your help. I'm one who tends to overreact to things. Writing only conveys about 10% of our intended communication. Take care.

The opening in the standard canopies were narrower than the light fixture itself. That, I believe would tend to light more light in, but I could just be a moron too. Which is generally the case.

T5, as you can read in the post prior to the one you quoted.

Ok, sorry I said anything.

I got glass canopies yesterday they work great. They appear to let in more light too.
