So ive just got back from a week in the sun and whilst away the fish were being fed (auto feeder once a day) but the plants we're not.
I usually dose 30ml TMC complete 3 times a week but since coming home ive noticed a bit more algae on the plant leaves. (Looks fine like threads, see pic in comments)
Is this because I didn't dose the plants??
Now I'm adding ferts again with this slow down??
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 20 (ish) however this would have been lower during the time I was on holiday
1. 700 litres
2. 2+ years running
3. 3 external filters
4. Nicrew LED running 8.5 hours a day
5. Fine gravel substrate
6. No C02
7. TNC complete 30ml 3 times a week
8. 30-40% water change weekly
9. Crypts, anubias, java fern, easy stem plants such as hydrafilia
10. Angelfish, rainbowfish, various tetras and corries
