OK So about a week ago I noticed that diatoms were starting to grow in my tank. I didn't really care much because I knew the otto and shrimp will take care of it. Sadly one my cleanup crew wont take care of the ammount yet. It suddenly bloomed into covering almost all of the plants, three pannels in my hex 15gal tall, and almost the entire powerhead.
Some questions:
1) I'm planning on adding MTS approx 10, think they will be able to take care of the alge?
2) What do you think caused the bloom? My tank just finished cycling and I hear its not uncommon for diatoms to grow.
3) If the MTS dont take care of the problem, any other sugeestions?
