Brandon from Elite Aquarium came yesterday.
Measured PAR with current config of 4 T5HO and 1 Kessil 6500K LED.
At plant bed PAR ranged from 200 at surface to 72 on side without the LED to 140 at bed under LED.
NO3 was high at 80.
KH50
GH 20
Phosphates 5 (0.5 in tapwater)
Will plan to drop the ferts back but the Java fern grows better with high nitrates and postassium.
Crypts doing well regardless. Glosso and dwarf hair grass not too great for unkiown reasons and there is too much algae growth. Background Bacopa does well but the other stem plants are doing more poorly than I've ever seen. No idea why, unless I cut the time down too much on the background plants.
