Hey guys, I have this strange hairlike algae/moss growing in my tank. I have never had it before until I introduced java moss into my planted tank. You can see the thin strands growing in the bushes of java moss as well as in the monte carlo. I've pulled what I could out because I don't know what it is. I don't think it's hair algae. It has the texture and look of a moss ball but isn't a moss ball. Any ideas?
Also, does anyone have an idea on how to slow or stop the growth of the algae on the glass/filter compartment of the fluval spec v?
Light: Finnex Planted+ 20" on for 6 hours a day
Substrate: Eco-complete
Ferts: EI Dosing (1/16 KNO3, 1/32 KH2PO4 (increased because GSA?), 1/64 K2SO4) + pressurized CO2
Fauna: Cherry Shrimp
Ammonia: 0ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 20ppm (at times, it's like 40ppm or really red on the test sheet)
