    Roma 240 algae and leaf rot, please help

    Thanks Ceg, I've got to say things are already really perking up in there, looking forward to things growing out so I can get rid of the nasty bits. I'm going to carry out another water change tomorrow and clear up any algae that I can, I would still appreciate some advice regarding an...

    Roma 240 algae and leaf rot, please help

    Thanks for the response and clearing some things up for me, I am using Tropica Plant Growth Premium Fertiliser.

    Roma 240 algae and leaf rot, please help

    Judging by the flow rate of my pump I guess one with a flow rate of 1600 litres per hour would probably be more appropriate.
