    today first cleaning after 14 days.
    its not much but the grow is dark so i thought it was time to clean.
    the leds burn for 10 hours and i putt them from 5 cm to 6 cm from the screan that is max.
    the display still looks good and there is a bit of no3 and p04 bilding. up.

    Looks great.

    As you can see, you don't really need to transfer to the new screen. It actually grew the same on the non-transferred part.

    Thats what i thougt to.
    There is not much more algea on the seeded strips mayby its just as hard for the old algea to get used to the led as it is for new ones to grow.
    and for now 7 days growing or 4 days because it is dark grow or and i need to get my p04 down.

    When I switched ATS out for version 2, I just took a harvest from the old and smooshed it into a nice and roughed up screen with my thumb across the screen. It took off pretty quickly. Tank never skipped a beat during the switchover.
