If not on budget... Go get the ATI ones... If on budget... Can get from Glare... He is selling the cheaper ones...

croalline grows best under low light though... my brother's FOWLR tank running on FL is blooming with Coralline while my MH lit tank never grow

so does that mean i should have my t5 blue tube to FL blue tube?

pm him...he can be found in the sponser foruem.. X Glare..hpe this helps..

and yes...i do agree with bro..RYZ...coraline algale growth does not means it needs high lighting for it to bloom.. it needs low N03 low P04 and calcium ... my coraline algale bloom nicely on my LRs ..and i only use a 24watt T5..antintic..
