Good day everyone . I just want to say thank you in advance because I know someone here has dealt with this before.
So here goes. My tank is a fairly young tank (7 months old) . It is a 20gal waterbox and is lit by a ai prime 16hd. The tank has 3 small fish ( Royal grammar, sixline wrasse and a fire fish) .
So here's the dilemma. I had a bacterial bloom for about 2 months now . I bought a 13w UV sterilizer and the bloom was gone within 4 days, but a day after I took it off , bam full fledged bloom again. So then I bought a Ultraviolet Sterilizer V2 from Coralife ( I purchased this because I could hide it in the return section. Its a little less watts). The few corals that I have are struggling (zoes and gsp) but fish are doing fine.I have no idea what to do now , please help.
