Biocube 32
Ammonia-0
Nitrite-0
Nitrate-0
Calcium-450
Phosphate-0.02 (if I did the hanna checker right. Kinda skeptical about the reading. Thought I was at 1.0 phosphate with api test. Retesting with hanna checker again tonite. I can explain more if you need more info)
20 lbs dry rock
Intake media basket
DIY refugium
Tunze skimmer
Tank 2+ months old
I would like to know if all the algae(s) shown in picture are part of the the natural cycling? The red slime is really starting to take hold. Wondering if I should just relax and let nature runs its course or start treating some of these issues. Its a real "ugly" looking tank kinda discouraging and I dont know if my OCD can take anymore of it. I got algae(s) growing in places....well you know. Alittle insight would be appreciated.
