Question about pearling - 01-15-2007, 04:25 PM

This is my first post so before anything i want say hello from Croatia
I will tray to be short because of my terrible English
I was cote in despite over pearling.
Usual my pearling start after 8-9 hours of light ( light period is 11 hours) but when i reset aquarium ( change 70-80% of water ) it starts practically at once. Is that because i saturate water with O2 or CO2.
I believe it is a meter of extra CO2 and greater clearness of water, not because of extra O2.
I mean can pearling be visible if water is not saturate with O2?
I believe it can because when i ad en extra light over one 250 l tank ( usual it is lighten whit 120 w MH and i add 800w reflector for picturing it ) plants start pearling like crazy in two minutes.
Not enough time for plants to change saturation of water with O2
