Hey y’all so my tanks about 2 years old now I’ve been having phosphate issues which have caused major algae issues
i had phosphates at .92 which i finally reduced with gfo to bring it down to .16
The red / green cyano looking algae finally started going away completely i also siphoned it off the sand bed
during which. I took out a lot of my sand wanted to add 40lb of sand back into the tank without causing a major issue
i was told my local fish store to buy live sand rinse it alittle with my tank water in a bucket pour water out then put sand into the tank with the little bacteria packets it comes with it andi. Should be good also adding some prime into the tank to help stabilize think this will work?!
