Another thing that has occurred over the last few months is poor coloration of some of my acros. I attribute this to a few things:

1. I had my ATI fixture hung way too low, especially for a tank that is only 16 inches deep.

I have since moved it up to about 10 inches off the surface of the water.

2. I was running too long of a photoperiod.

This has been reduced down to 9 Hours.

3. The ORA Laura's Purple Polyp I bought from LiveAquaria came in with Red Bugs.

I treated the display with Dr. G's. I have done Interceptor treatments on my previous tanks and Dr. G's has the same active ingredient while being easier to obtain. Treatment went well, I dosed 6 capfuls and haven't seen red bugs at all since.
