Alright, there really isn't anything wrong with my plants, but there is some foam in the res and it smells a tad and I know this could lead to problems for the plants. This happened earlier in the week so I followed Roseman's 8step recovery which solved the problem.
There was no foam until this morning. The only thing I did with my res last night was add 1/4 dose of Micro and Grow nutes (SH stuff) after straining them. The last time I changed my res I also cleaned my pump quite thoroughly so I am not really sure what is causing this foam? I searched a bit in this forum and found something that sounds possible. From the thread "Article on Algae" I read: Quote:
Could this be the problem? If so, how can I fix it? Here are some pics of the foam/plants. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks for any and all help |

that foam is OK, and not harmful.
Those little white spcs you had was water minerals, and are safe and OK. You are underfeeding them some, start 1/4 dose at the sight of second node, next 1/4 at the sight of the tiny 5th and 6th leaf. Next 1/4 at 7th and 8th leaf, to play it very safe. You are doing good. I unsubscribed from your thread cause some newbs with no experience with the kit were advising you there and I did not care to debate the thickness of the tank lid. They sell 60 kites a day, sold 30 a day in 2007, and no one complains of algae due to light shining through the lid or tank. Light can shine in the cups if you do not make cup covers.

Thank you for the reply Roseman, the news about the foam put my mind at ease.
I have skimmed over of those threads a bit but I will definitely spend some more time reading them thoroughly. Thanks again for your help! + rep! Last edited by Firas; 10-08-2009 at 01:56 PM.. |
