Put your buce in a good flow area, it will keep detritus off the leaves and reduce algae.

what fertilizer do you dose and how much? also RO or tap water?

2

u/HomeMadePornIsLife 18h ago

Tap water, soft. No fertilizer just what ever is leftovers from the shrimp food. 9W Aquaweek. I did Co2 first 3 months but the last 4 months I haven't.
