@ENRIQUEGOITIA thanks. I like it :)

plants use both blue and red ends of the spectrum. Its just that alot of plants like rotundifolia and the red ludwigia species prefer more red, and the lighter, mid green plants like a mix. But your right about not getting actinic, in particular, because it uses a tiny bit of red and blue, but mostly purple, which does absolutely nothing for the plants lol.i know the coralife bulbs give charts on their bulb light spectrums. just wanted to let you know. kickass tanks btw, lovin ur vids

[Dustinsfishtanks]

@supertasticasian Yeah. I wish I had a spectrum diagram to show, they do need other parts of the blues, but its sooo small compared to the red....glad you like the vids/tanks.

@ninpon8 all words have meaning, If you don't mind your kid having a foul month thats fine, but don't think theres not going to be a consequence to being a bad influence . I'm sure that this guy is a great dad, just don't be surprised when she starts getting sent home from school

@djghostonthewheels Out of all the good things in this vid, this person is concerned with "sh!t"... Just an observation. Here's a tip, and I'm not even going to give you advice- The f-word, the s-word, the b-word, the n-word are just words. There's nothing good or bad about a word, only the meaning that you attach to it. If a word bothers you, it has nothing to do with other people. Unless you want to place the blame on the ones who taught you to think that way.

@djghostonthewheels True statement indeed, my son is 8 and has never heard me use foul language.
