Could be if they weren't used to the par levelsSo it turns out the MH bulbs I’ve been running are not 250w...they are actually 400w. When I set up the giesseman spectra in November, I ordered the bulbs from BRS. The boxes said 250/400 and I didn’t think anything of it. Didn’t read the bulb, being new to MH I was so worried about installing the bulb without getting my fingerprints on it lol.
Well went to install the 250w and immediately notice the size difference. So yeah, dumb error on my part. BRS initially sent me the wrong size but didn’t catch it.
Guess I’ll order another 400w since the tank been running well and not sure I want to change that. My only other concern is the existing 400e bulbs. On my luxacore electronic selectable ballast I’ve been running them at the 250w HQI setting so they’ve been under-driven. Wonder if that’s why the current one popped?
On a side note, makes sense why I was frying some corals (maybe?).

Now that I think about it, that’s probably not it. I was under driving a 400w bulb so not getting the full impact. Probably not exactly the same, but guessing it’s closer to a 250w impact.Could be if they weren't used to the par levels

Low nitrates invites dinosBusted out the cheap microscope, and grabbed a small sample, saw one Dino. Seemed to be spinning around but can’t get a good enough view. Bummer.
Started dosing microbak to get more bacteria going and will delay water changes. Guessing it has to do with my drop in NO3? This tank just doesn’t seem to like going below that, although this time it just came down after a series of water changes and lightening my stocking load.

It’s odd though my NO3 or PO4 never bottomed out. Lowest I tracked was 10ppm on NO3 and .06 on PO4.Low nitrates invites dinos
