To Myka,

Thanks for the heads up on the test kits, I will look into this.

GFO: if things don't improve with the latest changes, maybe a GFO reactor instead of Zeolites will be used. Thanks again.

My fixture: 2X250W MH with Electronic ballasts. 2x80W T5HO 5 foot bulbs with Actinics. MH is Ushio, T5HO are the stock Hamilton Actinics. Most corals are brownish, Blue's don't seem to be a problem as I have a large blue SPS colony thriving, most are brown/brownish overall.

HEHE, I am not offended, no worries... I know how text can come across the wrong way... I own a internet company, it happens all the time. If you have any advice on bulbs, I am thinking maybe we need to change around. I am thinking brand, but also maybe types. Maybe 14K for the bulb and 10K for the T5 or leave one actinic and change the front one, what do you think?
