You are brave, going out in this weather? Don't tell me the sun is shining in Carlisle. It's [censored word] here.

 

[Alm0stAwesome]

Nope it's miserable here lol, but she leaves tomorrow so no wimping out allowed!
Do you guys know anything about staghorn algae? I've got a major outbreak. I know my flow is good, not sure about CO2 levels though. It's possible it was caused by lack of nutrients i guess but i've just read i should maybe be dosing 3ml of tpn+ a day so i'm going to start that. i've got my lights on 7 hours a day at the moment.

 

[FishFanatic04]

Its usually either low co2, or low water flow. Is it all over or in one spot? If it's one spot you may have a dead spot. A small powerhead could fix that. If it's all over then I would think co2 first.

 

[Alm0stAwesome]

It's kind of all over but is more on the vallis than on anything else guess I need to get some liquid carbon, grrr - will that make it die off?

 

[FishFanatic04]

Vallis doesn't like liquid carbon from what most people I have seen write about it. A few rare cases have been fine but mostly, I hear it melts vallis.

 

[Alm0stAwesome]

Oh great!

 

[Alm0stAwesome]

Sooo do I just need to chop the plants that have staghorn on them?

and I think there may be some BBA forming on one of the vallis leaves

OH DEAR GOD HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aaaaalllsooooo, how long do these bronze corys need to be healthy before I can find them a good home in good conscience?

thankee bye.

 

[FishFanatic04]

hmm the vallis has good water flow?

algae is caused by lack of flow or lack of co2.

How long are your lights on again?
