Hope I’m not missing the conversation. I have a strange shaped tank: 36x9x12tall. I have a light that is likely waaay too powerful for my small 12 gallon because it is the 36-48 plant 3.0. My lighting schedule has been just as complicated as my tank. I work nights and sleep durning the day, so the planned routine in the app is back-ass-wards, and confusing to look at. I also have to make sure to have the blue light on during part of the day because there is a tiny bit of very indirect sunlight, very small amount that shines into the connected room till 12noon. This is to try and get the tank on my schedule while still blocking all extra light during my/the tanks new sleeping hours. Please let me know if y’all think that’s unnecessary, but I don’t hate the blue light honestly. Also please let me know what y’all think about the tank size and what I’ve got set up. I had to leave for work and just turn it on the first day and it was on for 10 hours, full blast (I think). This is before I knew how strong this light was, and it definitely damaged the plants in that one day – they look a little bleached out. Hopefully they bounce back. This is my FIRST foray into fish and tanks, so will take all constructive criticism. Side note: I am nutrient dumping, including CO2. Though I’m not sure what the CO2 is doing exactly. https://imgur.com/gallery/TZwaDEy
