Aquarium Advice Regular
My 75gal Planted tank has been going a couple weeks now and has seen LOTS of growth, esp my rotala, anacharis, glosso and ambulia. My glosso bed is beginning to grow horizontally and filling in nicely.
I do have a couple questions though. After discovering a gross error in my fertilization I ended up with my phosphates through the roof... through a couple water changes and PhosBan which i'm still running in my filter, I have phosphates at zero.
My nitrates were getting out of control too, now they're at about 5-15ppm I'd say... but I have a white cloudy bacterial bloom. What gives? Any ideas?
Also, I have a grand proliferation of life in my tank including waterfleas, tons of snails which don't seem harmful (pond snails, i think), and even hydras and various worms and bugs. Is this cool? or undesirable?
