The problem start with my 250w DE pendant. I guess placing it 8 inch above water level didn't do much much but burning the acro tissue only. I refuse or can say too stubborn to move it up. After many death, I decide to move my lazy bone is shift it up to 14inch from water line.

After 2 mths of tender loving care, making kalk to drip, adding DKH buffer and checking pH everyday. The acro is smiling back at me with its rainbow smile .. :lol:

I suggest you move the pendant much higher as compared to your current 150watt MH. Then slowly move it down in a bi-weekly basis.

Actually it all depend beri much on the glass shield too. Mine is only 3mm thick ... maybe thats where my problem started...

Actually, you're hijacking Hon's thread.

You should ask it seperately in another new thread.

Actually, there have been quite a few threads where this has been discussed before. Have you done a search? Keywords are superglue gel, superglue, epoxy.
