[APD] My New 90 gallon Setup
My 90 gallon tank has been cycled for about 2 weeks now. I used Biospira as
I couldn't stand to wait the 6 weeks it would take to cycle. It is a
partially planted tank with half fluorite, half gravel. Right now there are
only 7 fish in there which I plan to slowly build up. The lighting is just
a hair over 2.4 wpg. I have no plans right now to start messing around with
C02. I tested the water today and ammonia is 0, nitrites 0, ph 7.4 and
nitrate 0.
The plants seem to be doing well but I am seeing long stringy algae,
especially on the driftwood. There is the start of brown algae on the back
walls. Last week I spoke to someone at the LFS and he suggested that I
start fertilizing. I said not yet but now I'm thinking I should.
Experts, please advise a beginner on what my next steps should be. Thank
you.
p.s. I ordered my garden tools from AZ Gardens yesterday.
