Aquarium Advice Regular
I have a 40 gallon fairly heavily planted tank with some driftwood that is now about 5 months old, and I can't stay on top of a BGA/cyano problem , I did have other types of algae (hair/beard) but they seem to be going away to levels I don't mind since introducing rowaphos as the phosphate levels were terrible from my tap water .
My CO2 is 12.1ppm, KH 16 (I think - from memory!) and phosphates below 0.25, nitrites 0 and nitrates between 0 and 10, pH of 7.6.
I have 10 cardinals, a few guppies and a lovely SAE with the intention of getting more fish soon as lots of space. I did add a liquid fertiliser once a week as directed but thought it was making it worse, but not so sure now after reading the forums! Any help/suggestions would be greatly received! Thanks
