Hi all,
When I see diatoms forming on the glass of my tank, can I scrape it off immediately, or should I wait until just before the weekly water change? Not sure of the theory here.
Thanks!
I'm very grateful Siege - thank you. I'll do as many water changes as I can for a while, and give the sump a big clean out.If you are having diatoms (sounds like something you should buy a cream for!) I assume your tank is newly set up.
Don’t do water changes weekly, instead increase the frequency to 2 or 3 times a week. As large as you can muster.
