Hi All,
So every few days I seem to be wiping the glass, I'm guessing a it's green dust algae.
I've also noticed a bit of a build up of algae on plant leaves.
The current set up is running a little over a month, the filter was cycled on a previous set up.
I'm running 2 hygger 42W LEDs and it's a 4ft tank. They would be classed as medium light.
I'm also running CO2, the drop checker is dark green by lights on, so CO2 is sufficient but not quite 30ppm and that's the way I intended it to be. A medium set up.
I'm dosing Easy Life Profito weekly
Easy life Potassium weekly
I've added iron daily as I did notice my plants lacking in that department.
My questions are:
How much algae is normal?
If what I am seeing is not normal, where is the first place you start when it comes to the fight?
