Hi all.
im thinking about changing my substrate because I think it’s causing me a few issues with hair algae.
I’ve got ferns and mosses that are doing ok but have been covered in BBA and hair algae Recently.
I’ve changed the filter cartridge and that seems to have helped.
I’m also doing regular water changes too.
lighting schedule ok as are my water parameters.
So, my thinking is to change my substrate which is currently white fine sand (Maidenhead aquatics), to one that helps aid plant growth as well as the water column.
Anyone got thoughts on this or any advice which would be welcome too.
thanks
