my n was in the 60s now its down to 10 the cheato did not help at all like the hair algae is
That is the N number I targeted. After I setup an algae scrubber, some cheatos and bubble algae disappeared in my display, and no cheato grown on scrubber screen ever.
More interested is, at the beginning of tank build, something block my overflow, and obvious "oil film" appeared on the surface, and therefore cyanobacteria everywhere in DT. After cleaning the overflow, cyanobacteria start to grow on my scrubber, and I clean it every week as schedule, and finally it disappeared after 1~2month.
Thetefore, algae scrubber can become cyanobacteria scrubber if DOC accumulated.
