ahh cool i have Potassium Phosphate (KH2PO4) in my fert mix so i guess im ok, ill jsut add more to the mix then it will not come back as easily? Thanks Will

thanks for the guide Ceg :D Has been favourited in my 'Fish' folder :lol: How is the best way to add PO4? Will

to be honest, i didnt know adding PO4 stopped it. From an article of read on the internet, it says this algae was inevitable :lol: thanks Ceg :D

got planty of filter floss :D thanks ill give it a try tomorrow in the regular clean :D

i have green spot algae all over my glass. The problem is i dont have an algae scraper with a blade to get this off (except my marine one but i dont want to risk it) is there any other way of getting this off? my algae magnet is just a hagen one so it doesnt get it off Thanks

thanks Ceg, you've really helped a lot :D if you don't mind me asking, what poweders shoudl i look out for to make my own tpn+ equivalent? im currently looking on aqua essentials so ill provide some links and ill ask you if they are worth getting :)

thanks, so if i buy a drop checker and a 4dkh solution this will measure my co2 and i can give an accurate reading and if i buy some tpn+ shoudl my algae eventually go away? Will a 250ml bottle be ok? The price is a little steep for me :lol: So, after all that, what type of algae is it? And...
