Adjusted my dosing pumps the other week... when doing so make sure you’re adjusting the right pump. Needed to up calcium and ended up adjusting trace elements way up and calcium levels continued to decline. Also, thought I slightly increased alk but dosed too much and it was on the high end. My numbers were all out of whack.
To make matters worse I started to get Cyano so I tested my water... high nitrates low phosphates. Dosed some NoPox. Cyano outbreak. Test kits had expired. New reagents were ordered and I had high phosphates and lower nitrates. This caused the Cyano outbreak (low nitrates/excess phophates). Now the cyano is finally on the downward swing and tank is going back to normal more and more everyday. Gotta do a couple more water changes to get my tank back to normal.
