I have had some algae problems, currently GSA and BGA. My CO2 and flow is fine - UP atomiser on separate 3000 lph powerhead circuit in addition to the 1700 lph filter. Spraybar. 200 l tank. Dosing EI for 300l. I have plants that show nutrient deficiency and crypts that regularly melt their new leaves. I have par meter and the substrate par is about 40. 50% water change at least every 7 days, recently every 4 days.
I think my nutrients are messed up and I blame my tap water. The local water report does not mention phosphate or magnesium. I think nitrates are fine straight from the tap
Where can I get my tap waters Phosphate and magnesium tested at a reasonable price?
Any help trying to establish my tap waters baseline levels appreciated.
