In my experience time will allow things to balance out in your aquarium. I do not have experience with CO 2 or Fritz Enzyme. Put your light on a timer and gradually make adjustments with one thing at a time. Allow a few weeks after you adjust something (like dose of fertilizer). The algae is not the worst thing for a new aquarium so just work on small adjustments. Don't get discouraged, finding the balance takes time.

Ok good to know! Thank you

I have had 6 Julidochromis Dickfeldi for a few months and now 2 have paired off. As of Friday their behavior has switched to protecting a small area. I assume they have eggs, but does anyone know long long they take to become free swimming? I can’t find much info online about it

I’ll give that a try and see if he starts healing in a week or 2. Thanks!

I haven’t noticed anything out of the ordinary, however maybe he got spooked and ran into the driftwood or something. Would salt be helpful if it was injury? Thanks for the advice, I think that is worth a shot to see if it helps

My Electric Blue Acara has developed this bump over the last 2 days. No other fish in the tank is showing any sign of illness. Any ideas? ammonia- 0, nitrite - 0, Nitrates 20, ph - 7.8, hardness 10-12, temp 78
