I've had this aquarium set up for a year and it's dying and I don't know what to do!
90 Gallons
5 yoyo loaches
4 red eye tetras
10 guppies
1 clown loach
The fish are all well and I have 0 ammonia, nitrates, a pH of 8.4 and I do regular water changes. I have a large canister filter and I keep it clean.
My problem is that my plants are dying and I dont know why. There should be plenty of nutrients from the fish poop, the light is on for 8 hrs (I lowered it to 6 to try and kill the algae but it didn't work) and have aeration. The water is at 25-28 Celsius and I regularly remove dead plant matter but the plants are covered in algae and they are slowly dying one by one.
Please help! Pictures included (I haven't cleaned the algae in 4 days)
