Thanks for the input everyone.

I'm getting the drop checker online soon, so I'll see where that's at. The odd thing is that one of the plants (Tropica sword) with the spot algae pearls all day. My understanding is that this means there is "excess" metabolism happening and all the raw materials needed are present. I do know that I tend to go a little light on the PO4, though so I'll try to keep on it better.

I also know that more water changes wouldn't hurt anything, but I also have that problem of not enough hours in a day...

As for the peat, it's too late to use less!
