I am having a bit of a problem. In the last 3 months I switched from T-8's 2 day light bulbs and 1 50/50 all 36" @ about 25 watts each.

I am now running 2x96 (1 7700K and one 10000K) and a 25w daylight T-8...
Ever since this upgrade i have been getting tons of algae and leaves turning yellow and starting to get holes in them. Bananna Plants are the first to go.

Do i need 5500K's 6500K's 50/50 or what.. heres a pic of the tank:
