    Marine Light for Tropical Plant Tank? + HEAT Concerns

    I have no probs with the way I think. I was pretty cruisy with your reply up until that part telling me how to think. It's not just you, but also a few others in here and all over the internet. Invalidation regardless of intent. People today just can't help it. Thanks for everything Col...

    Thanks Col - Love your suggestions. The gravel cost a bit an whilst lining the top may be an idea, when cleaning gravel it would all get mix. That said, I absolutely intend on getting darker gravel. The gravel I purchased said dark/gold and was the only affordable option at the time. 100%...

    Marine Light for Tropical Plant Tank? + HEAT Concerns

    Yea sorry about that. I was more respecting Cols input by showing graphs as earlier requested by Coilin and expressing in the only way I know how. The information provided to me was quite beneficial in reaching a more appreciable light balance with what I have. As for this new information you...

    Apologies Jenny. I am still newbie as well. It's more how chaotic my brain is and how I teach myself. Generally this way I learn things faster. That said, I can see how it might be confusing to others. Thank you for sharing your settings. I'm curious as to why you have chosen to greatly...

    Marine Light for Tropical Plant Tank? + HEAT Concerns

    Hey - here is an update. I have tried keeping your suggestions in mind whilst reducing the deep blue light that I do not like. This is what I have come up with. Please note that I found it hard to get the minutes exact as the 10 time stamps where very close and my fingers fumble a bit even...

    Thanks Colin, I will certainly give that a try. Sounds like a good choice of colors to me. I have far too much blue in the mornings and evenings as the light dies down. I'm just about to swap computers as I work on this one but will be sure to get back with a video based on the last colors...

    Thanks again Colin. I sense I am getting bogged down but just trying to make the most of this light is all. I can't thank you enough for hanging in there with me. Your continuing like so with me is helping me to see the bigger picture. I manage to throw the little video together just showing...

    Marine Light for Tropical Plant Tank? + HEAT Concerns

    Thanks guys - I adjusted the setting on Manual and Auto as well. I even lowered the light intensity to get a more natural look. The color looks way better to my eye. I think the light will run cooler now that it is not turned up so high. Thanks to you guys I think I can work around it but...

    Marine Light for Tropical Plant Tank? + HEAT Concerns

    Yea thanks - Colin was also explaining a little bit like so. But like I said to Colin, I wonder if there is something else in the light other than color that plants need? That is all. That said, I am going to do exactly as you guys suggest. The part about so be it ... will not be for me. In...
