Light Timing
I often read in this forum or others that hobbyist have the lights in their planted aquarium turned on for 10hrs a day, at least. I have my timer set for 4 hrs in the morning (8am to noon) and another 4hrs from 7 to 11pm. My plants seems ok and algae is under control. Am I doing it right? What is the recommended hours and when do you turn on the lights?
The tetras are afraid to come to the front and hid behind the plants whenever the lights are on. They would only come out when lights out. Not even feeding would entice them. But the rummies are ok. Is this behaviour normal?
