I have a 120 gallon cichlid tank in my office with 2 48" natural daylight flourescents on a timer.
the timer was accidently set to run from 7AM-5AM (instead of 5PM). I noticed and fixed the problem because one of the bulbs burnt out and i checked the timer. So now I fixed the lights to run 7AM-5PM but only have one going now until I replace the bulb.
But literally over 4-5 days, the tank went from a few spots on the glass to GREEN water! Like Incredible Hulk green. =( How can I fix this? just lots of water changes? or can I dose the tank with Flourish Excel? There are no real plants in this tank because of the chichlids...
please advise, thank you!
