AnsleyBleu Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) This algae is growing on my water sprite too. Lights are a double strip of bright white LEDs that came with the 29gal Petsmart branded tank. Lights are on for about 7:45 hrs a day - on a timer. Water: GH - very hard (Los Angeles water) KH - moderate PH - around 7 nitrate - 20 or 30 ppm no ammonia or nitrites Tank was started in January.

AnsleyBleu Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 Thanks everyone. After some reading, I believe the issue was created because I have been adding liquid iron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
