Knighty Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Hi my evo has been up and running since around the beginning of Feb and is home to a pair of clowns, 2 trochus snails and a cerith. I am running the stock light, heater in chamber 1, filter wool, rowa and carbon in 2 and a tunze return pump in 3. water parameters are temp 25.8 sg 1.025 nitrite 0 nitrate 0 ph 8.1 ammonia 0 I have this algae forming on the rocks that the snails seem to have no interest in and despite removing it it just comes back. Lights are on 7.5 hours and the tank is not in direct sun light. Any help would be appreciated Dave Quote Link to comment
