If that is a current picture, it still doesn't look terrible. What you could do is get some sort of clear plastic bottle or container large enough to...
Don't worry about it, you may be right. Your theory sounds reasonable. The only thing I would add is that if is precipitate, it can start a chain...
I've noticed that on my pvc and rocks too. The snails take care of it pretty well.
Something similar happened to me when I first started my sump. I used fresh salt water in the sump and when that entered the tank it became cloudy,...
alright, got that now
That's not overly much. How high is it in the tank and how long have you had it? Did it just turn colors or has been in the same spot for a while...
I would wait it out right now, any further change will only prolong the cloudiness. It could be from a sudden increase in PH or alk. What do you mean...
For popeye, I have cured fish by treating their food with melafix. It worked within a few days. As far as breathing heavily, make sure there is...
I would have to say Mission or Luna. However, there are several people making a strong running including you Dr. Fragenstein and PharmerJOhn
I will look into that then. Thanks
Wish I had a light meter.

Try to post some pics, we love to see what it looks like.
In your tank, you should be fine. I wouldn't worry about it.
Do you have a link to it? Many things can affect its light output, particularly the reflectors it has. But also the way it cools itself and ballasts.
I currently run 4 x 54w T5s and have a green pscamora (sp?) that is doing great and a green birds nest I just got that has started to grow. I also...
It looks like popeye to me, my yellow tail had it. I treated his food with melafix and it disappeared after a few days.
How big is your tank?
If you have an algae problem, a 10,000K bulb will not help, it may make it worse. Algae grows best with red light and a 10,000K bulb will have more...
Another quick point, from the growth pattern, I feel that it may want less light, as it has been growing downwards. Don't know though if that is the...
