I am currently dosing everything including trace elements. I am also dosing nopox to keep algae at bay.
How do you guys last years without water changes when you have algae issues?
I probably need a herbivore.
I grow algae in a diy scrubber tray. Not just chaeto but anything that grows. If it's a nuisance in the display then let it flourish in a scrubber. Harvest the growth for nutrient export. I dropped a bunch of uncured rock In a new tank in January. They were great rocks but the turf algae it brought was an issue. I just waited and a month later it's gone in the display but it's in the scrubber. I haven't changed water in more than twenty years. I dose the big 3 plus a quality multi trace solution. Good luck.I am currently dosing everything including trace elements. I am also dosing nopox to keep algae at bay.
