The increase of lighting can shock the contents of your tank. It may take a while and gradual increase in small amounts of light for it to turn purple again. |
I use to have the MH's on for 8 hours a day. When I got the new lights I lowered them to 5. Should I go less time? Now that I think about it. The problems all seemed to start after I got the brighter lights. What do you think? Will the rocks eventually get use to it and grow back?
