Hello,
I have a 250l freshwater tank with neon tetra, kulhi loach and Vallisneria (which is struggling). I am getting brown algae which I can control through weekly water changes but it comes back after 3 or 4 days. Water params are all as expected and fish doing fine although phosphate is quite high. 2ppm which is the same as my tap water. Any recommendations for a phosphate remover other than going to RO water? I have seen products such as Fluval Clearmax, Seachem Phosguard etc etc. but I don’t know what would be best. I currently have the Fluval phosphate pads in my Fluval 307 filter but they don’t seem to make any difference. Any advice welcome.
