I've been doing well recently as far as the whole planted tank thing is coming along. My plants grow well, and I have a few (but no major) problems with algae. But then again... who doesn't.
Whats bugging me at the minute is my anubia. They are growing really well, but after a few weeks the leaves get covered in green spot algae.
Does anyone have any tips for combatting this?
My tap water has 5-10ppm of phosphate and my lighting period is 8 hours. I suspect my CO2 (DIY) may be having an effect, but everything else is growing so well! With the drop checker my levels are undulating between light green at lights on and dark green at lights off.
