There is still green algae growing, though the plants are starting to grow normally again with the proper nitrate levels. There is also still a bit of green water. It seems that the Excel helps suppress it, but not completely eradicate it. I keep forgetting to run the UV the night before a water cahnge to try to completely get rid of the green water.

You can see the water is a bit cloudy

The snails that must have hitchhiked on the un disinfected plants are really prolifigating: I could even see snail eggs on the tank walls.

Two of the harlequin rasbora died yesterday, probably because the CO2 bubble rate was set too high. I fixed the rate.
