Hey guys, I have a 25g high planted tank. Pressurized co2, t5ho ( x2 geisemann aqua flora/midday combo 24 watt). I just recently bough the geisemann bulbs (two weeks ago) I originally had true lumen 12000k and a flora bulb. I didn't like the results I was getting with it so I switched to geisemann. Anywho, since I've put these bulbs in I've gotten the beginning of green brush algae, black beard algae, and blue-green algae. My photo period was 10 hours with my prior bulbs but I'm thinking I need to cut it down to about 8. I used to dose comprehensive until I just gotten my dry ferts from gla today. Do you guys think the cause for all these different types of algae is because of the lack of nutrients and to long of a photo period? Thoughts??
