    You could experiment with more than 18. If it's not photosynthesizing much, then it might not need to respire much.

    Today i go to see my growth expecting nice growth.. and.. pop.. bubble busted.. my scrubber is back to this crap.



    I dont get it.. i got a mag 9.5 at 2 feet feeding it.. i have four 23 real watts lighting it.. my return iwaki pump delivers 1000 gph to the sump... Should be perfect.. im a bit frustrated.

    A screen that size is going to need 2 to 3 cubes of food a day before it gets thick green.

    You don't need to for filtering, but you do for green. Your screen is too big to get thick; that's why the new guidelines are for smaller screens... to allow them to get thick.
