  • pH:

  • KH:
  • GH:
  • NH4:
  • NO2:
  • NO3: 10
  • PO4: 1
  • Iron:
  • Dosing: 5 mL Flourish, 0.5 ppm iron chelate, 2.5 ppm NO3, 0.6 ppm PO4 (10 mL Flourish, 1 ppm iron chelate at night)
  • NO3:PO4 Cumulative Dosing Ratio: 44.35:4.45 = 10

Notes:
Spread of staghorn algae seems to have stopped, more green algae (mostly green beard algae) growing today. There was a burst of growth in the repens and stargrass, although the stargrass leaves were pale and more twisted. Definitely due to turning on the UVS.

I've also noticed that one of the SAEs have been hiding out a lot. The two SAEs are usually not shy at all, but one of them has barely showed itself over the past several days. It is also noticably skinnier than the more active SAE. I don't know what's wrong with it.
