I have two tanks. I use the same RO water source for both. They are both FOWLR. One is aggressive, the other is friendly. Both have DSB and more lbs of LR than gallons of water.
Both tanks have very low nitrates (20 or less) and good Ph.
Recently I had a cyano problem in the friendly tank. I used Red Slime Remover. Now I have a green hair algae problem.
I dont have a decent phosphate test kit, so I cant answer that question right now. What I want to know is why one tank would have an outbreak and the other wouldnt?
If its a phosphate problem, why one tank and not the other?
How do I get the tank back on track? How do you lower phosphates without additives?
