Jared0401 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Since updating my light on my 29gal planted aquarium to the Fluval planted 3.0, I have begun to see hair algae in the tank. Looking at my aquarium co op easy green today I noticed it’s for low to medium light tanks. Should I increase my dosage frequency to try to level out the fertilizer with the light? This tank also has CO2. The algae is not out of control but I want to get a handle on this ASAP. This light is amazing and plants look great since switching this on.

Struggle Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I’d take a look at Bentley Pascoe’s video series for the 3.0, it’s been a great help for me. There’s also a great thread here as well to read through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted January 2, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 2, 2021 It's a balance. You want to maintain about 20ppm of easy green in your aquarium. Depending on light and co2, will determine how much easy green to dose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared0401 Posted January 3, 2021 Author Share Posted January 3, 2021 Cory and struggle, I am fairly new to the hobby with plants so I am sorry for any obviously repeated questions. Cory when you reference 20PPM, what method would I utilize to ensure this is the amount I have in the aquarium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
