Let me start by giving some equipment set up and current water peramiters.
125 gl tank (US) 100-110 gl after aqua scaping
Eheim Pro 3 canister filter (model 2076)
milwaulkee Co2 reg w/selinoid and bub counter
aqua medic 500 reactor
double drop Co2 checker
current usa 4x96w PC's (only using 2 of the four lights) (2)10k (2)6500k
(7) 7kg bags of seachem Flourite Red
RO/DI water purifier
PH 6.05
dh 3
gh 4
drop checker: green (run Co2 24/7)
ammonia 0.25
Nitrates 10
phos 10
Fe .5
Lighting 8 hours
water changes every 10-15 days
Doses: Brightwells Florin Axis, Florin Fe, Florin Gro, Florin Multi, Florin K
These are my current reading as of today. I am new to this hobby by only a few months and don't have it down yet but willing to learn. I have stayed on top of my tank trying to clear this up but nothing seems to be working. here is the skinny of what I have been doing.
4 weeks ago: I scraped half of my plants and redesigned my tank layout ...40gl water change cleaned and scrubed everything
3 weeks ago started dosing with Brightwell products after 53gl water change increased bub count to 3 per sec , decresed lighting by half
2 weeks ago started over dosing Florin Axis (organic carbon) same as Flourish excel while keeping up with regular doses and testing
1 week ago 60gl water change 50% TAP WATER after noticing that my nerite snails were looking bleached (tap water for the calcium and magnesium) don't like to do that because I can smell the chlorine in the tap.
Today the staghorn is still growing as well as all of my plants I don't know what to do I have great color and growth with all of my plants.... I am at a lose :?
