Alright yall, what am I doing wrong?
Tank age 1 year.
Constantly battling cyano or gha. Cyano goes away, gha explodes, gha goes away I get a little break and then boom cyano.
I have 7 fish in a 44 gallon. Just ordered some extra clean up because maybe I'm lacking in that department (5 hermits and 2 snails).
I feed maybe a half a cube of frozen a day and most if not all of it is eaten.
I have a rimmed tank so I'm pretty much stuck with my eheim canister filter. I change and clean the media regularly. I run gfo to help keep phosphates down and change it often. I do a 20% water change weekly.
But I still have issues with gha and cyano EXPLOSIONS. Cyano is actually easily managed for me, peroxide seems to work very well on thqt. But the GHA, I spent last Saturday removing almost all of it by hand and its even worse a week later. My bryopsis 6 months ago wasn't this bad even.
EDIT: NITRATES 2PPM AND PHOS .08
Please help. Thanks
