My tank has been cycled for a couple months.. However, last week I came home after a couple days of being away to find the tank cloudy.. Looks like I have some green algae on some driftwood.. Can't really say the water is green, milky looking with maybe a hint of green... Water tests show 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 3 nitrate.. When I first noticed it, the water tested 0 accross the board.. Thinking maybe if it was algae, it had sucked up all the nitrate.. But it has slowly came back up over a week to 3ppm....
Is this the first stage of green algae? I can only assume so from the slight green algae that has shown up on the driftwood.. Any way to adjust my tank instead of getting a drop in UV unit?
