Afternoon, I have 8-10 nitrates since the cycle. It’s been 3 months . I do a weekly 15g water change. I recently stopped 2 weeks ago because of low phosphate
I have a bunch of short brown fuzzy algae that started a couple weeks ago. I monitor phosphate and it’s always been 0.05 - 0.02 since cycle as well. I feed enough for all my fish to eat but not too much at least 2-3 times a day. Pellets & algae in morning and reef frenzy at night ( 1 cube )
I have 2 tangs, 2 clowns, 2 wrasses, 5 chromis. I 24/7 run skimmer for co2 scrubber & I run kalk which keeps me 8.2-8.5 pH.
Today I found it’s 0.00 and I have a tiny patch of Dino’s but I don’t want hair algae to bloom.
How should I raise phosphate without blooming the fuzzy algae ?
Thanks for any advice
