Scythanith is on a distinguished road

Things I changed were:

Reduced Mitras light output from 60% to 50% and dropped the 4400K & 6500K spectrums down to 30% (from as high as 70% at noon).

Took bio-pellet reactor completely offline.

Increased flow to GFO & GAC (did not add or replace media, just increased flow).

Did ~20g water change (did another 20g last night but that wouldn't count).

Recently dropped the temperature from 26.0 to 25.7 celsius (may not have contributed since it was done recently).

Started feeding less than a full PE Mysis cube, but added cycploeeze to the mix (Mysis always thawed and rinsed before feeding)/

I recently turned the lights back to the original 60% total power output and restored the white channels to normal. We will see if I get a resurgence of algae. Colby had come over about 10 days back and he had a tough time identifying the algae. He said it lied somewhere between cyano and diatoms. Mindy, I will go and calibrate the meter right now and test again

Cheers,
Scott
