Hi to all! I'm came here looking for help about an algae i can't identify. I googled a lot but couldnt find anything similar. Please help.
So I have 90 gal planted tank (rio 300). It was running fine with lots of plants. I didn't trim regularly so the tak became crowded, less flow and algae came (green thread). So I did big trim. Pulled almost everything out and replanted.
Before trim:
and after
The new algae
Since then (23. october the day of replanting) I combat some algae I havent met before. Its brownish, can be easily peeled off by stirring water. Like some short stumps . And it sinks right after or attaches itself to some other plant. I don't know what it is and how to get rid of it.
After cleaning the tank and water changes it goes away but it comes back in a couple of days.
I have co2 above 30ppm, 50% water changes a week (100% rodi with remineralization, KH cca4, gh 7). Ferts daily with weekly dose n-p-k , 7-4-25 ppm. I make my own fertilizer with salts and disolve in water. For micro i use EL profito (have some other recommendation?). Fotoperiod 8h (two lamps uniq fs 900 cca 135w led 100% and jbl solar natur 57w 100%).
The tank today:
