Friends I have lots of hair algae in my tank. What did I do wrong? Here is the scenario
New 20L with Co2 on an eheim 2215 with a Ray II for lighting and it all sits on Eco Complete. Lots of plants and it has been running for about 2 weeks now. I seeded with some gravel and water from a local donor. ph is 7.2 as of yesterday.
The only changes I made were new plants added from a forum member. In my hurry I did not scrub them or anything of the sort and 24 hours later I had massive amounts of hair algae. I manually unplug my soloenoid every night and kill the lights. Lights on is about 10ish hours.
Any insight is apprreciated
