Hikari cory food is a good one. Mine always loved that stuff. But I've had them last years on leftover flake before I started target feeding..

Initially, I'd use an entire package, 4 to 6 bulbs. I just throw in 2 or 3 when I notice a build up starting now.
Sorry it took me so long to respond. Since I started the new job I rarely get to too many subforums that I don't moderate. I used read almost all of them while I was unemployed, lol. |

Thanks Cholly, I went today and bought some food and new cartridges....Yeah about the only thing I use in my tanks is salt and stress coat...I'm just getting frusterated. Today I cleaned all glass, including the back, all the uptake tubes, some of the plants...(fake silk)
I might try some of those bulbs. How many would I need to compete for the algae in a 55. It's stocked well. Two whisper 30-60 hob filters....Any other suggestions welcome. |

Chemicals are generally not a good idea, especially if you have sensitive fish or any live plants. Check phosphate levels, I have phosphates in my water and it can be a major PITA. I use aponageton bulbs to suck out the nutrients, both nitrates and phosphates, they grow really fast and so out compete the algae. There are several types you can get, two are available at Wally World, the dwarf lily grows a little slower(and lasts longer) but you can re-use both types if when they die back you throw the bulbs in a baggie and toss the baggie in the fridge for a month or two. Doesn't always work, but it reduces the cost of the bulbs.

Also, make sure there's no condensation inside, that's a pretty good indication that the seal is broken.

^ I agree with the dislike of certain fish in all groups so my answer would be I dislike ... Dead fish.

Use a spare tank or other container & an accurate thermometer.
