hi everyone, I am having trouble still with algae. my water perimeters test perfect: PH-7.3 , Ammonia-0, Nitrite-0, Nitrate-0. Now I heard that phosphates will cause algae so I went and bought API Phosphate test. OMG, my phosphates are 10+. I have been using PhosLock for a week as well as doing 40-50% water changes every 3 days BUT I still have algae and my phosphate are still 10+. Oh I have tested the water I use and it tests 0 on everything including phosphates. I do not add anthing to my tank accept floursh 1xweek. I do use nitra-zorb, bio-zorb, and ammonia chips in my filter.
