Hi all, I have read and read about BBA and can't find anywhere that really helps with how to get rid of BBA without contradicting each other. Since moving, my 40g tank has got BBA and I am constantly picking it off but want to sort it out for good! My NO3 was 5ppm, PO4 0.5ppm, NH4 0ppm. I dosed Nitrate to get it to about 10/15ppm last night as I was seeing a bit of BGA (been there before, thank you for your help then!!). I have 2 x 30w lights which I have recently been running for 9.5 hrs, no CO2 inj and its pretty well planted with stemmed plants (not sure what without looking it up) which seem to be doing ok but since moving I have noticed that they have started to slow up. Tank is not overstocked and I have just got 3 more SAE (I had one already but he's a bit grown up now). I do a PWC every week with gravel siphoning and dose TMG + (the tap water has 0ppm PO4 and NO3) weekly. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to get rid of BBA, why it may have come in the beginning (prob cos I didnt do so many PWC!) and if I should be doing anything different?!
Thanks
