Default recomendations requested

At pH 6.9 and kH 15, by formula, your CO2 is right at the level where it may
start being harmful to your fish.

What kind of plants do you have, how long has the tank been up, are you
adding fertilizer, and what is the water temperature? Do you have algae
and, if so, what kind?
