Nice lightyear,
Are you doing anything different? You still list the same tank parameters.

Oh I forgot to say: here's my gamble:

- Added Activated Carbon!!!
- Daily Ferts to complement loss of nutrients
- Light still 48watts / 9wpg
- Eyebrow raising: SIESTA 4 hours light, 2 hours OFF, and 5 hours on again

It work. I dont know why
