I just started this hobby. I want your help because there is a lot of information pollution on Turkish forum sites. I bought an aquarium with a second hand full system. I installed it on 19.01.2020. The materials in the aquarium are as follows;
- 64x61x47 cm sized aquarium with back sump
- Tunze 9004 PS
- 28 cree led handmade day simulated luminaires ( The day simulation module will be added on 21.02.2020. All leds are 100% on now. )
- Jebao SW-4
- NewaJet 1700
- 4.7 kg Fiji Rock
- Sea Sand
- and all corals seen in the picture
- To kill the bacteria in the water by keeping the ready water in the aquarium for 3 days.
- I washed the aquarium sand with its own water. So I may be experiencing an ammonia explosion right now.
- After installing the aquarium, I did not add bacterial culture.
- I couldn't solve the day simulation for a month.
- I regularly change water around 15% weekly.
- I add a BioDigest bacterial culture every 15 days.
- On February 21, 2020, I will install the water completion and day simulation.
- I cleaned the places where I saw Cyano moss with a toothbrush.
- I put the wave motor 8 cm deeper.
- Since the lighting is working 100% now, I reduced the lighting time to 6 hours.

My problems in the aquarium;
- I observe that there are cyano algae in the aquarium now.
- The nitrate level does not drop despite the regular weekly water changes.
- There are algae on the windows and sand.
