im not into it all that much to know the science of everything, however i am intrested.. Clive(ceg) may see this later, he is the best one to talk to.

plants can utilise the nutrients before algae can appear and use them.

thanks, i think the problem is that it isnt cycled fully yet, so levels are all over the place. thanks guys
