Heavy pruneback = more algae

  • pH: 6.8
  • Temp:
  • KH: 5
  • GH: 8
  • NH4:
  • NO2:
  • NO3: 5-10
  • PO4: 0.5
  • Iron:
  • Dosing: 10 mL iron chelate (1 ppm)

Notes:
After the drastic pruneback (>60% plant matter) over the weekend, algae started growing again. There's less plant matter, so I've been dosing less. Since I was out for the past couple days, I haven't dosed anything for the past couple days. Hopefully, over the next few days, the algae growth will slow down again. The numbers above are for yesterday.
