Hey guys, I need of some help.
I'm battling quite a strong outbreak of Dino's, not sure what form as I have no way to ID as yet.
My parameters have bottomed out almost certainly due to the outbreak. Ammonia, Phosphate and Nitrite all zero, nitrate 1 or 2. I know I need to get these up but I also don't want it to be detrimental to the tank too.
I've a fluval Evo 52l, using bio orbs as media along with the stock carbon and porcelain pouch (new carbon pouch being added today). I've tried to siphon out some of the water bourne stuff but not having much luck apart from taking plenty of water out. Have some filter socks coming today which I'm going to try to use as a net.
I don't have a tonne of money to waste on options that arent going to work so I thought I'd ask for those with far superior knowledge.
Any help really appreciated, I'm really struggling.
