Great video again Justin! I keep my lights on for 8 hours a day! And my plants are doing great! _Keep up the good work!_ *Thumbs up!*

@atlerfix4240 Год назад

I keep my Lights ON for all 24 hours ....will it be a problem?

@floydsfishes2856 7 лет назад

my lights are on for 9 hours plants seen to do very well, good info Justin keep sharing the good word

@ADUAquascaping 7 лет назад

great explanation and easy to follow. I always push my light just because I love looking at my tank. Sometimes it will cause more algae.

@gnovincejr2 7 лет назад

I got mine at 8 1/2. They seem to "Pray" at that point and I believe that's the point where they don't take in very much more light. (In my system of course)

@NeonTetraAquarist 7 лет назад

Great job Justin and Nate! I love this video and editing!

@robinr5705 8 месяцев назад

Hello, what percentages do you keep your blue red white and green at? I am battling overgrowth of algae. I have a fluval aquasky and have sunrise, daylight,sunset and night settings programmed. I never had this much trouble with algae when I used florescent tube lighting. Suggestions? thanks.

@AdaptOrQuit 3 месяца назад

So I currently have my aquarium on an opposite schedule than normal. The lights come on when I wake up between 4pm-7pm but then they stay on for about 12hours. Then off again for 12 hrs

@puzzlemagnet1957 5 лет назад

so u sell your plants? or is any specific reason as to why you growing those plants so much?

@CoffeeTimeBrian11 3 года назад

The more important question is how do you correct the damage when the light or timer malfunction while on vacation..?

@varanidguy 6 лет назад

I have the Finnex Planted+ 24/7 CC and have it set to be full power by noon and dark by 9 PM, given how the light slowly ramps up, this gives me about 7ish hours of full brightness out of that fixture. I'm also running a Beamswork DA FSPEC alongside it for three hours a day as a "high noon burst", but that is getting replaced very soon with a Fugeray Planted+ because I don't like the spectrum of the Beamswork.

@thefishylife6823 7 лет назад

here's a question..... can 12hrs. of light, damage my plants? so far no algae????

@tylerjohnson4600 Год назад

I use a on off cycle I have mine click on for 5 hours then it shuts off then later it pops back on for another 5 hours is that bad?

@vivekanadansrikanth6652 4 года назад

I have a 9 watt LED but there are no oxygen bubbles released from the plant or any development in growth,is that a problem

@CbrRob 4 года назад

Try adding some co2?

@mountainhobbit1971 7 лет назад

thank you for this...I like the approach of starting with a lesser amount of light hours daily and slowly increasing it as time goes on...as a beginner to the planted tank hobby I appreciate this advice...and I have found very little on RU-vid for this particular subject...and it is nice to know that 6 would be a bare minimum...I was wondering what a good place to start at was...and now I know. I know that there are many other variables to also factor in to the photoperiod per day equation.

@theallseeingeye9388 5 лет назад

For beginners less is more as far as light is concerned. A lower brightness will ensure the tank doesnt get overun with algae even in the presence of extra nutrients in the water.

@jc49fishniner4lif7 7 лет назад

like always great video thanks for sharing that good info

@jrgrande69 7 лет назад

What stands do you use for your tanks ?

@austinandce4504 5 лет назад

What percentages are all your colors at?

@petercohen3966 3 года назад

Have you got slugs or leeches in your tank 4:25 on ? Something wriggling.

@anthonyragan2696 7 лет назад

What's your opinion on split lighting periods? I know some planted tank people do that, claiming it controls algae.

@theallseeingeye9388 5 лет назад

Did you get to testing the theory of splitting the photo period?

@arrpiichico8770 4 года назад

why mine. it is only turned on for a while .but my plnats seems to be devastated? is this something to do with the temperature on our country?

@StanTheObserver-lo8rx 5 лет назад

10. I mean most plants are tropical so they are on 12 hours naturally at the equator..but not all 12 are like noon levels..so 10 of mild aquarium light is a good balance.

@matthewdespaw879 7 лет назад

good video man

@unclefester4493 4 года назад

@photo_magicshots 2 года назад

Which is the correct method? 1. Switch it on continuously for 6-8 hours 2. Switch it on for 1 hour, turn off 30 mins, then turn on 2 hours, turn off 30 mins - Interval method
