Hello,
My tank

Lightning: 2 x 24 t5 ho daylight 6500k plants bulb 4000k
co2: pressurized via ceramic diffuser
Substrate: Prodibio aquagrowth soil
Plants: Hemianthus cuba, rotala walichi, pogostemon helferi,alternanthera mini, alternanthera red ruby,eleocharis pussila,fissidens, pogostemon stellatus broad leaf
Tanks life: 9 cardinal tetra, 5 amano, 5 otocinclus
Fertilization: I started EI this week
So..i have this slimy hair brown algae for about 3 weeks now..
The steps i did:
Reduced my lightning. I was running 3 t5 ho bulbs now i am changed to a 2x24w T5.
Huge water changes with cleaning. I am cleaning it even with the air pump hose..I am doing at least 2 w/c 50-60% per week maybe more.
Some normal dose excel in the tank
Nothing helps.. I am so tired of this. It is really aggresive. It grows on substrate,plants i found even on heater
Aquariums life is about 2 months .
Help me please by giving me some tips
Thank you in advance
