Last week I upgraded from a Coralife single 39w 50/50 light to a Tek Light 4x39w T5 fixture, I have them mounted atop my 46g bowfront and wow they are amazing. Currently I am running two blue plus bulbs, an aquasun 10000k and a 6500k midday. I've got the lights at almost they're highest point cause when I added them my temp went from a steady 78-79 to a 80.5 to 81 degrees. At night the water drops back down to 79 or so. After this first week of having these lights, my 3 small polyps(which i posted about in another thread) have grown just a little bit but stay open longer. However, my glass has become covered in red, orange, and yellow over the last few days. Tried scraping the front glass with my algae scraper sponge and its very hard to get off. I believe this is corraline growing, my live rock has changed in color alot over the last few days showing more red, pink, and green. Anyway, sorry for the long post, just looking for some recommendations on keeping my glass cleaned off, mainly the front and sides....I will post pictures soon. Thanks for the help.
