thanks again guys

Well, that answers one question.
They are curling up.

Actually look better that I had feared.
Still a tad young for the cal/mag though, (It supplies Nitrogen).

Looks like a nice setup.
Change out the water, aerate, monitor the PH and you will be OK.


With CFLs it is best to keep them very close.
Within a couple inches.
Too much light is seldom an issue, but the heat can be.
Hold the back of your hand the same distance from the light as the ladies for 30 seconds.
Too warm?
Raise the light an inch or two.

I think you will be fine Highdogs, grow-on.:thumbsup:
