my corraline algae is bleaching out....

I've been told this is a lighting issue.  I have a 55gal tank with cheapo florescents--what lighting do I need to get to get my coloration back?

thanks

I had this problem and it was low alkalinity and ph.  The color came back as soon as I got the parameters back up.

I very much doubt it is a lighting issue. Who told you that?

Tell us more about the tank, or call me. We can help you pinpoint the right solution if you are willing and able to discuss it.
