hey Guys,
Hope you’re all well.
So I have my tank for about 2 months now. It’s a 180l Jewel Rio with its equipment only.
- 2x 29w led lights have aluminium foil covering galf of it
- water tube turned up so the surface can move
- dosing 10ml of macro: Mon, Wed, Fri
- dosing 10ml of micro: Tue, Thu, Sat
- LC easy carb 5ml every morning
- lights on for 5h each day
In my tank I have
18 neon tetras
6 Amano shrimps
2 golden mollies
My plants are
Monte Carlo
X1 Anubias
x3 valleria
x4 Bacopa
x3 echinodorus paniculatus (Amazon sword)
x1 alternathera reineckii
Few Ludwigia repens
How the problem is that since last week o started to have some brown algae on my plants - mostly on anubias and the Amazon swords - and since yesterday I started having blue spots on my rocks.
I’ve been reading and I think it’s because when I added my Amanos they are all my alternathera leafs in 2 days and when I opened my filter on Sunday it looked like this:
It’s less now though. So I’m gettin new foam pads to replace those.
I am thinking on getting a new pump, maybe jbl e1501 to get more rotation on my water but I still don’t know what else I’m doing wrong :/
Also, last week when I tried to “fix” my Monte Carlo, I accidentally took some out and kinda touched the substracto - yeah saw many dirt coming out.
See my algae pictures - sorry for the low quality heh
