I have had my system running for almost 3 years. It was a 40g breeder until a month ago when I upgraded to a Reefer 350 (75g).

My acans, bird's nest, purple stylo, and a couple of monti's are all growing great, but i have a few groups of zoa's, a kenya tree, and GSP that just won't grow much.

I have been running a Kessil AP700 for most of that time and wonder if the softies have just been getting too much light.

My water parameters have been good according to my API kit.

Is there anything else I should look at?

When you did the changeover is that when you switched to the AP700? Also what does your schedule look like and how far do you have it mounted off the waters surface?

It's a little over 14" off the water.

I switched to bluer schedule when I moved to the new tank.
