Hello friends!
I’m cycling my tank for 3 weeks with 10kg live rocks I bought from a 1 year mature sps tank of the LFS, started lighting 1 week ago. Aquaforest bio bottles are dosed daily. I noticed no brown algea bloom, but the green algea is starting growing in my tank (picture below). Copepod and amphipod are observed in cheato refugium, also on the glass of the display tank (the baby ones - white dot).
NO3 - 10ppm
PO4 - 0.15ppm
Calcium - 430
PH - 8.3
Alk - 9.3
Magie - 1350
Salinity - 1025
Temp - 26.5 - 27.5
Is this normal and I can leave it there or any strong action needed? I’m using 3 snails to eat the green algea.
Thank you friends!
