Bill,Kinney,caven thanks for the help
bill asked "What kind of plant fertilizer are you using?" I use plant gro
fertilizer for aquariums. may have added a bit to much. There not very
specific on how much to use.
kinney asked "Why do you want to adjust the Ph anyway?" I was adjusting my
ph with a phosphate buffer before I added plants to my aquarium. My tap
water ph is around 8.2. I am using co2 to keep it lower now I have done
several water changes with using the buffer and the algae is not slowing
down. I have also stopped fertilizing to see if that is going to help. p.s.
your from maine?
caven, said "I don't know about those goldfish. Don't they eat
stuff?" They leave my plants alone for the most part, nibble hear and
there. That's fine with me. They did eat a foxtail within 1 day :( I did
some research on the algae type I think it is Brush algae, and Hair algae.
"0 nitrates? that's bad" How do I fix this? don't know phosphate levels.
I appreciate all the help,
matt
