My Lido 120 Macroalgae Tank

[KilianSP]

Just wanted to share my Low Budget and low electricity project i made from my algae frags.

First tank where i don´t get the ULVA to grow, but everything else is doing fine.
Also first tank where i do regular waterchanges every 2 weeks, since it is for me to small to redose fluoride, manganese and other stuff, so i stick to the easier way.
It´s working without a normal filter. i got a tunze comline, where inly the sponge is inside, i don´t use bio media. sometimes i put fine filterfloss in if it is needed or carbon for a day to get the yellow tint out of the water.

i use -
a Popbloom T50 Freshwater Led, running at 40%
Tunze Comline filter
50W dennerle nano heater (sits in the tunze filter)
Fzone ATO

Have a nice day :)

I think it was on Facebook that I saw your CO2 injection for macroalgae. How's that going? Is that a fishnets system?

Yeah that sounds like me
It is still running, but since the algaes got so big, i turned it off. No need for fast grow and nutrient uptake if i can't sell them quick enough.
But i am going to get it back running on two frag tanks i build. Setting it up with a PH probe and Set it to PH 8.0 (normal i have 8.4)

I got more than 25 mollys in there. They are doing great and grow so fast

Thank you very much
Still have a long wishlist for more algaes but it is really hard to come by in Germany
