I have been hit with the dreaded BGA in a new set up. I have removed all visible BGA from the tank, but the smell still lingers even after a water change. Using Ultralife Blue Green Slime remover does not seem to help at all.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can conclusively sort this out? Do I add KN03 to increase nitrates? Spot treat with hydrogen peroxide? I have Tropica Specialised Nutrition and APT e. Which would be better for the purpose of increasing nitrates but not phosphates?
Apologies if this seems obvious but chemistry isn't my strong suit.
Cheers.
