Phosphate in Flourish?
- I have 4 x 23Watts CF DIY over a 25 gallon
- CO2 fertilization is via 2 x DIY CO2 2L bottles - Substrate is 100% Seachem Flourite In the tank, I stock - 1 adult + 2 juvenile platys - 4 neon tetra - 1 ghost shrimp - 3 otocinclus (sp?) By way of plants, I have: - 2 asian ambulias - 1 corckscrew val - 1 java fern - 1 banana plant - 1 parrots feather - 1 (small) tiger lotus - 1 anubias nana - 2 moneywort - 1 Ludwigia repens - 1 bunch of dwarf hair grass (spread out in 6 small bunches) Water Params in tank: - T = 81 oF - pH ~ 7.3 - kH ~ 4.0 - 4.5 - gH ~ 3 My filter is a 350 GPH power filter !!! (will be replaced soon). I do at least 1 x 25% water change a week I fertilize twice a week with Seachem Flourish. I find that brush/beard algea get a boost on the Java fern and dwarf hairgrass leaves everytime I fertilize with Flourish. I feed the fish twice a day but just enough for a couple of flakes to make it to the substrate (the rest is consumed at the surface or the way down). Should I be replacing Flourish with something else? |
