I didn't know that misspelling anything disqualifies one from posting on this forum. We try to keep this forum open to comments and suggestions and you certainly don't welcome any Dr. Price. For somebody who is looking for algaecide, you sure sound convincing that you don't have an algae problem. Up until now, you still haven't stated whether your tanks are full of live plants (that do indeed need light). You still haven't stated the type of fixture you have over your tanks for anybody to suggest anything. Please list your current setup and you'll see what people recommend, this is an open forum and everyone is entitled to an opinion.

As to no hostility intended statement above I'll respond with the following question. Why would you ask how much light is required if your mind is already set on your own number? Were you looking too seeing if everybody agrees with you or were you just looking to start an argument? Please, lets keep it friendly and be open minded to allow for healthy discussion of topic at hand. Thank you.
