Aquarium Advice Regular
Have a 46gal bowfront and wanted to have a fun themed tank so I got a tiki hut and palm tree to rice out my tank. All was well and then I got diatoms again. (I had them bad from silica based pfs last time. I have since replaced the pfs with tahitian moon sand which will not leech. The only other place I could think the diatoms would come from would be the aquairum decs or the plastic plants I have. I'm leaning toward the decorations, is there anything that can be done to prevent the leeching of the silica from the decorations?
