Wondering if anyone has an opinion on masking over, with electrical tape, the RED LED's to block the spectrum they produce.
I am battling a algae issue on a new tank and while I am addressing the issue through other means as well, I'm thinking of blocking the red LED's (or most of them) as another method of control.
For posterity, the other methods of algae control I recently implement are:
1. Added a GFO & Carbon dual canister reactor
2. Added a DI canister to my RO only unit. (phosphates were 0.3 ppm out of the RO only unit)
Does anyone have any opinions on how helpful / detrimental blocking the RED LED's on my lights?
