Morning R2R
I was hoping for a bit of guidance here. I am on the 4th month with this tank and I’m having a hard time keeping nitrates stable. If I cut back my feeding I feel like the fish/inverts are not getting enough food.
When I feed what I feel is just the right amount for everyone to grab something, it ends up being too much and pollutes my water.
I have 1 tail spot blenny
1 mandarin
5 sexy shrimps
1 pedersons shrimp
And about 10 hermits and 5 snails
noticed a whole lot of algae building up on frags, and rocks. Especially the monti frag I just moved from the bottom glass to the top of the rock work. The algae seems like a champ but at the same time not really.
is it cyano so I just need to watch how much I feed? Or is this something else?
I do one or two 10% wc a week
