Aside from issues with algae, what are some problems seen with too much light?
The reason I ask is that I have a 360L tank (1200x500x600) with 6 x T5s (54W each) with reflectors. Four of them are "daylights 6500k" and 2 are Hagen Life Glo 6700k. About 12 hrs / day on a stepped timer (so as not to freak out the fish when they come on and off).
Some of the plants are growing reddish/brown (not algae). And one of the taller ones is bending back down. The tank is only 4 weeks old and has a moderate fish population slowly introduced in the last 2 weeks.
The all seem to be growing making oxygen. And I have CO2 (on controller), JBL substrate, substrate heater (picked it up cheap), and use Flourish and Iron supplements.
Tested PO4, NO2, and Fe all being with in normal ranges according to test kit. ph 6.8 and temp 25C.
Am I missing something or doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance.
