Get some plants in these tanks!
That's some skimpy planting!
More plants=> less algae, ala Walstad or not.
Add floaters etc.
What is .2ppm of FE?
I add ml of a trace at a known concentration, I assume this is based off an estimation and not a test kit?
The 125 has soil substrate also?
These are often messy and problematic at higher lighting.
I used less than what you have, about 1/2 as much and had more sand cap, 3-4".
I think both tanks would do better with peat/mulm and a turface or Flourite etc type sub.
Get some plants in there though.
Crank the CO2, keep the KNO3 up.
