Ive had this chaeto since the tank started. It started as a small ball and expanded to cover the surface of the sump. The past few months, it started turning yellow/white on top and floating oddly. I try to flip it often but it doesnt seem to be growing well or consistently, and now I have a cyano issue (only on the glass oddly enough it isnt sticking to rock or sand).
My nitrates are around 0-5, I still need a Phos test kit. I feed a hand full of pellets to a few fish once every day or two, and have a skimmer running.
The fuge is lit by one of the newer ai prime fuges maybe 6-8 inches above the water and through a lid on the sump, at about 40-50% at a reverse light schedule to my main tank light, so like 6 pm to around 7-8 am.
Am I burning the chaeto? Is it not getting enough nutrients? I had read that dosing iron supplements can help, would chaetogro do me any favors?
