Hi everyone.
My tank is around 6-7 months old now, very heavily planted and is around 80 litres.
Im pumping 2bps of co2 into the tank 2 hours before lights on and turning it off 2 hours before lights off.
I was using tropica specialised ferts alongside tropica premium ferts on alternate days but after adding fish stopped using the specialised.
Now I have been noticing old leaves looking a bit worse for where, is this a lack of some nutrients and should I start using the specialised ferts again on alternate days?
By worse for where I mean like slight browning and slowly developing holes etc in the leaves.
Currently the fish stock is classed as close to max according to the calculator I use.
Edit (forgot lighting info): light is 2x 24 watt t5 and is on for 7 hours a day.
Also green spot algae on the glass is appearing faster lately and needs a very good clean each week.
