so given that I am house bound for the coming weeks I have decided to finally fix my BBA infested aquarium.
I moved my 90h to my kitchen area as a divider between the dining area a couple of months ago.
Two changes since the move : 1 I have gone from 2 externals to 1 (due to child access issues) and there is more natural light in this area...especially as I painted the room white and knocked a wall down... and it’s spring!
I was initially thinking of adding a power head to compensate but the more I think of it I believe the main issue is caused by indirect natural light before the co2 comes on.
So I have reduced my bubble rate, but now have the co2 coming on at around 7am-7-pm ( previously on at 12noon)
I thought it might be useful to document how this goes and will provide photos shortly.
Thanks
