Ok, just for kicks I put the 5000k T8 bulbs in for 1 day. The plants still pearl, but not as much. I switched them back. My tank is now balanced and pearling like I never thought possible! 2 48" T12 P&A Bulbs ODNO 4X, PH6.8, KH7, CO2 injected, Plantex & Flourish 3 times a week, and occasional Fleet ennema. I have to use RO water due to horrible water out of the tap. The plants and fish are lovin it!!!
:hehe:
