    Well slime does hold a lot of nutrients. I bet you have the toothbrush cleaning routine down pretty good.

    Just another update to help me keep track. Still more slime. Kinda seems strange I haven't started getting hair algae yet.

    It's growing, it's just a slime type.

    What are the current tests and other filters? How is rock algae?

    No algae on the rocks still. No new filters. Just the carbon reactor. Dosing Alk and trying to dose Fe. Will get back to you on the test.
