My phosphate level is 0.25 and I'm using phosphate remover to try and get it down. Right now the only thing that I'm dosing is Kh-buffer.Cyanobacteria
Yes, look at your phosphate levels. also what are you feeding a dosing? There are red slime removers that will get rid of it, but it is best to find out the source. Mine was phosphates and dosing to much vitamin C.
