Hello everyone ,
I am struggling once again with some weird white golden stringy algea , and near my dosing pump outlet it is the worst but I can’t understand why this is happening . Because k have a 25 gallon / 92 liters and dosing about 2.20 -2.40 ml a day in 5 doses spread over around each 4 hours ish. And it looks like it is lowering nitrates or phosphate not both. First my nitrates where lower and phosphate high 0.9 and then it switch now my nitrates are 50 and phosphate 0.1 been dosing it for about 4 months now. Any help is welcome.
I will post some photos later on of the weird golden algea
