    Struggling to grow anything that doesn't end up having algae issues

    With regards to your ferts I haven't used any of the ones you have so can't help I'm afraid 👍 Water changes wise I'd prob be aiming for 50% minimum but I tend to do more like 80% and a couple on the bounce if I notice something wrong etc. Something like hornwort floating would reduce light at...

    Struggling to grow anything that doesn't end up having algae issues

    In the beginning I had a aquascaper 900, twinstar s and oase bio 600, co2 by a inline diffuser, all the kit was recommended by aquarium Gardens when I originally set it up.

    Fed up with algae in all 3 tanks

    Sorry to hear you're fed up with the hobby. Just a few of my thoughts. You're running your vivid on 101w whereas I'm running mine on 75w, which I find very very bright, just a observation. Could you possibly reduce the lighting intensity and length of photoperiod to 6hrs maybe. I'd be trying to...
