The setup is a 40breeder. It has a 5lb co2 tank running 3 bubbles per second for 10 hours. The lighting system is 4X39w T5-HO also running for 10 hours. Water is RO/DI with equilibrium, acid buffer and alkaline buffer added to get the Gh, Ph and Kh into the correct range. I also dose sparingly with seachem plant nutrients (I do not use the phosphorus). Filtration is a fluval 204 filled with sponges and ceramic rings. I also have a koralia nano running for additional flow in the front foreground.
I am looking for answers to the following questions:
1) What type of algae is this?
2) What are the possible causes of this algae growth?
3) What fish eat this algae
