Hello I am having a bit of a algae problem, I think it’s diatoms but I will post a picture down below if anybody wants to take a look. I have done research and it says they feed on silicates in the water. Any solutions on how to remove it. I think my problem was I was not using RoDI water when I topped off the tank. That probably added extra silicates. I am now fully using RoDI water. But I need to get rid of the current silicates in the water. Any suggestions for that?
Thanks in advance - Sam
Edit - Forgot to add, this is a Fluval Evo 13.5 and it’s current stocking is 2 Clownfish, 1 Firefish, Some Snails And Hermit Crabs.
