So I have read quite a few posts about how important it is to keep the tank clean from organic detritus especially in EI tanks but I have a few questions about what this means and how to go about doing it.
1. Why is organics bad and how does it cause algae? i have a tank that suffers from clado which i am sure is caused by organics but don't really understand why.
2. How does one remove organics from a dirted tank, especially where there are lots of plants and shrimp?What techniques can I employ?
3. Why do ei tanks create more organic buildup?
thanks a bunch!
