1. I am using RO/DI water for mixing and top off.
2. I change 3/4 of a gallon once a week
3. I run the lighting from 12-9pm.
4.I feed the fish once a day either Spectrum thera pellets, cylopes, or mysis shrimp. About a 1/3 of a cube.
5.I use:
Kent Marine Phytoplex 2 ml
Kent Marine Calcium buffer part A+B 2.5 ml
Salifert all in one 2.5 ml
6. I do not check for phosphates at this time.
7.The alge is just on the glass and really isn't a huge problem.
8. My clean up crew is doing a great job controling the aqua scape. Maybe I need a few morre snails.
Lavish62, I would personally reduce your photo-period and increase your snails. Everything else seems normal. That should reduce the amount of Algae on the glass.
