Hello,
My tank is currently 2 months old, problems started a month ago, when I though that Dino appeared in the tank (phosphates bottomed to 0) and I did 5 day black out and dosing bacter7, but recently I discovered that algae on rocks turning green. Here are some photos:
1. During water change with white light - the sand has just been cleaned, rocks cannot be cleaned:
2. Few days before:
(Sand before water change)
Sand was looking like brown sugar. During the day there are many bubbles coming from rocks and some from sand. Parameters:
- Temp: 80F
- Ph: 8.3
- Alk: 8
- PO4: 0.09 (dosing)
- NO3: 20 (dosed to much)
I am not sure if it is Dino or ugly phase? How should I proceed?
Thanks
