Enough Lighting?
So is 70 watts of T5 lighting enough on my refuge? If not....im just going to buy a few more fixtures....heat is starting to build up...but im going to fix that shortly...I have 5 fixtures at 14 watts a piece....But they are only 3000 K and they are about three feet off the refuge....the mangroves are loving it.....so I guess its enough...Thoughts?

The reason im asking is because I cant get ANY macro algae to grow....I freaking have 70watts of T5 lighting over my refuge......thats a SHIT TON of light. Its so bright that its ridiculous, My mangroves are soaking it up....they love it........macro algae's just wont grow in my tank.....its pissing me off.
