Does my phyto growing setup look normal? The liquid at the bottom is much darker than the rest.

The bubbler inside is running on the lowest setting and I just added the phyto today.

Crank the air to max. You can't have too much for phyto. Right now it looks like it is settling.

I'd also make sure the end of the bubbler is at the bottom of the tank, so it gets completely mixed.
