50% water change and add the following Seachem products: 35ml Excel, 3ml

Filtration is an Eheim Pro II 2028.



If you do a search, you'll find interviews and articles from Seachem
reps who basically say that a tank stocked with fish should produce
enough nitrates and phosphates to feed the plants in a tank. Seems like
you only need nitrogen and phosphorus if you have little to no fauna.
I add Flourish, Excel, and potassium. My algae has come under control
even with it sitting next to a window.



I use Florish, Excel and Potassium and I have no algae either, been
using it for years, especially the Excel.
