It's been about 50 days since I added the blues bar. Coral growth has increased. I posted a photo of how Akana turned purple.
Blue Plus completely knocked out the green pigment from her. It is surprising.

When Orphek blue plus was added, the growth points on some acropores turned blue. Forest fires lose their green color at the ends. It turns out blue plus knocks out the green pigment. I have not made any other changes during this time.

Hello. For those who are interested in the light of the Atlantic. I have it for two years. In January I changed the board to the pro version. Put a voltage relay. Now I changed the plastic lenses for glass. The old lenses were in perfect condition, but glass is glass. Today the diodes are in excellent condition.

For the second time in 6 years of using the Tropic Marine Line, I doubled my A- and K + doses because my micronutrients had dropped to the lower limits.

Hello. 300 liters display, about 100 liters sump. I do a complete water analysis about once every six months. The usual dosage is A-, K + as in the instructions. The boundaries of these elements are wide enough. Water analysis always shows within these limits, but for the second time in 6 years I doubled A-, K +. because the readings went down to the lower limits. NP-BACTO-BALANCE is currently receiving 2 ml. for the whole system. Its intake depends on the phosphate readings. Subtract the NP-BACTO-BALANCE volume from the K + volume when dosing.

An example of growth under the Atlantic. In April, Pink Cadillac and Cherry Bomb were 0.5 centimeters. Now Cadillac is about 5 centimeters, and Cherry is about 8 centimeters.

I recently added two of those and saw an almost immediate increase in growth, great piece of kit at a reasonable price.
Oh, freaking awesome tank man!
