Three days ago when I turned the light on in the am, I had extremely cloudy water. My first thought was GW. But during the course of the day the water cleared leaving only a whitish haze by lights out.
Yesterday was a repeat of the previous days. This am, again cloudy water.
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but, does'nt algae need light ( amongs other thing ) to propagate?
If it is algae should'nt it be getting worse during the day instead of the night?
Tank Stats: 50Gallon, 130W Aqualight, DIY CO2, NO3 5ppm ( last night before adding 1/4 tsp KNO3 ), PO4 .25-.5, PH 6.4, KH 10.8, GH 13.4, Iron .5 ( last night before 25% water change ).
Tank setup is 10 days old with plants and fish ( ran 5 days prior to that without anything but ceramic nooddles from my other tanks )
Dosing Greg Watson PMDD Pre-Mix every third day, KNO3 every second.
Last night at 8PM

This morning 8AM
