I'm starting to get alot of green hair algea on the sides of the tank mostly where the powerheads are pointing, i have a bit on the one of the rocks.
My water parameters are good. except for my calcium which is low and nitrate being at 5.
Nitrate= 5 ppm
Calcium= 325 Mq
Alkalinity= 2.74 Mq
SG = 1.025
Hardness = 7.6 dKh
Temp = 80 F
Phosphate = o ppm
I have two MJ 1200 powered 8 hours apart, one Korillia 2 and one korillia 3 power heads both running at the same time pointing in the same direction one at the front the other at the back of the tank. One of the MJ 1200 cuts across the curretn from the Korillia's and the other against the current.
I did replace the lighting a month or so ago. Just seems to grow faster.
Does anyone have recommendations?
