I think I have enough fish but I feel my light was set way too high, which was exhausting the c02 produced by them as well as ambient c02, I have my light turned way down now about 45-50% from 70-75%, is an Over flow filter a hob ? I have 2 hobs and a hydor 425 gph WaveMaker and a neo diffuser air stone
Yes, it draws what up through the media then spills over the surface of the water. I really rate them as they create some nice surface agitation with some gentle flow. Sounds like you have a lot going on there but tank size will say. I always found those wave makers to be way too powerful.
Yeah just turn the light down. It sounds like you have a decent amount of fish.
Heres a message from my uncle after a discussion about aquariums. This was a very long time ago.
‘Looking good Craig. I remember when I hadn't been married long Babs had a tank in Germany with tiger barbs and a few plants in. We returned after a year and you struggled to see the fish that had doubled in size because the tank was choked with the plants. Only care was her mum feeding the fish everyday! I'll be interested how yours goes on.
Good things happen when you leave things alone. Including the death of algae.
