Aquarium Advice Addict
Ok, this topic has been beaten to death but I am asking a new twist to this because I am sick of it and I won't be able to afford pressurized until I find it on the side of the road.
Here is the question:
What do I have to do to my tanks in order to get rid of the BBA without increasing my CO2? Lower light? Less dosing? Slower growing plants? Faster growing plants? 3-5 SAE in each tank? Dose Excel until the BBA is gone and then keep at that dosing level? Stop dosing EI and dose bare minimums? Blackout my tanks once every other week? Remove the CO2? Will any combination of these help to get rid of it? What has to be done with the tanks that can be done with what I have? I also don't care about any other algae because between the BN and the ottos and soon to have SAE it won't have a chance.
This is the last gasp at a solution that doesn't require an investment that is more than I have paid for all of the stuff I have for my aquariums combined.
