Table 1. Relative rates of photosynthesis19 in seawater (measured by oxygen evolution) at pH 8.7 relative to pH 8.0. A value of 100 means that the rates were the same, and values below 100 indicate less photosynthesis at pH 8.7. |
How so? I can’t find any positive results in anyone able to control invasive algaes by removing nutrients alone. Normally the removal of beneficial nutrients creates more problems than solution imo.no , phosphate removers help for gha
first off i never said anything about using phosphate removers in a system without doing big damage learn to read... the op was asking if kalk would help to control gha , which it wont.How so? I can’t find any positive results in anyone able to control invasive algaes by removing nutrients alone. Normally the removal of beneficial nutrients creates more problems than solution imo.
In addition most algae will need more nitrates and ammonia than phosphates how would someone be able to remove all the nutrients that algaes need to thrive from a aquarium without doing a big damage to the rest of the system.
Why do you think your tank has excessive CO2?Would using Kalk help to reduce usable CO2 for nuisance algae (GHA)?
That’s correct kalkwasser won’t sort the issue although you just mentioned to use GFO to remove phosphates without going into further details. We don’t know if the op phosphates are even high. Comment’s like that are very misleadingfirst off i never said anything about using phosphate removers in a system without doing big damage learn to read... the op was asking if kalk would help to control gha , which it wont.
to use lanthium chloride you pull your rocks first then treat them.
the op was asking if kalk would help with gha it wont, i was suggesting a method that would solve his problem.
Why do you think your tank has excessive CO2?
What kind of algae are we talking about?
What started the algae? Had other problems that led to this problem?
in order to test for bound phosphates first the rocks must be boiled in hydrochloric then nitric acid ,
potentially can be done by grinding the rocks into fine powder and then just nitric aicd.
but either way the rocks wont be good for a reef tank aftewards
