Hi all,
As title says Im having some prolonged issues with BBA.
So I had a 30litre tank before and had it spot on without any algae at all! I then upgraded to a 60litre with the same photo period etc.
What I have realised is it takes alot longer to get the dc in this tank to go green so I have played around with the on/off time of my co2.
Currently co2 comes on at 4pm and lights on at 6pm then co2 off at 9pm and lights off at 10:30pm. Co2 is around 2bps.
I did have the lights on for longer but reduced it by 1 hour as I thought that could be the issue.
The BBA has gotten worse and I seem to be fighting a loosing battle here.
Whats the ideal combo for co2 and light together? Is there such a thing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
