    quicky question on acclimating from 14k to 20k

    As long as the 14K isn't too much older than the 20K, light depreciation over time can lessen the intensity, so switching to a different "new" bulb could harm your corals despite the output being the same (watts). If in doubt start the new bulbs a little higher than normal on your tank and...

    new refugium question

    I doubt the small clear things you see are mysis, more likely they are copepods, and they are good things. I would put a couple snails in the refugium to help with cleaning.

    Which product to raise my ca.
