What a difference a new bulb makes.

[DJ88]

Well after buying a new 250W Iwasaki now that J&L has them in again I put it on..

What a difference one day makes.

I thought the Diatom and Cyano problem I was having was due to the crash.

WRONG!

Changed over the bulb and my my sand is as clean as ever and all the icky stuff is diappearing fast. lets me see the few flatworms left tho.. Grrrrrr....

If its not one thing it is another..


So words to the wise. Make sure you have that extra bulb ready for your next bulb change so if your supplier sells out you don't have to wait and go through what has been going on with me.

As an aside. Noticing different colorations on a small frag I got from Marc a few weeks ago.. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] SWEEETTTTT!

Also noticed a large heat drop too. no longer hitting 83 by the end of the photoperiod. Only at my usual 80.5. cool
