I have a 55gal FW tank that has been set up and stocked now for almost a year a half and I am still getting what seem to be diatoms that make the tank look filthy every 2 wks. I have 3 silver dollars, 7 flame tetras, 4 corys, GBR, bolivian ram, 2 honey sunset guarmies. I have lost a few fish over the last 1-1/2 yrs but most of them were after my bout with ick. Here a few wks ago I lost a few tetras with bulging bellies. Anyone have any thoughts on what I can do to stop the diatoms. Its like never ending new tank syndrome.
