hello,I run orphek v3+,have an ongoing green slime algae on rock work mix of live and Arka man made.tried vibrant and fluco with some success but this stuff comes back nutrients are in hand and I carbon dose.
With the orphek most onboard settings for growth include high percentage cool white and wide angle red.
Have made a program for full power blue channels and 24% white which also includes some blue as leds are twin chip.
I am wondering I other people have trouble with cool white leds with regard algae,I will try the above program but am very tempted to put my old 400w halides back up as the only thing changed is lighting the tank has been running for about 15 years and growth and color has been much better.
regards graham.
