Well anyways I did a water change right now (about 40g) since I have not done one since I started setup, then letting it mix with old water and doing another water change later (15g). And going to try to hook up my phospate reactor this week to see if it helps.
I bet its your lack of experience. You probably never did any water changes. I also bet your tank looks herendous
