Dwarf puffers... very notorious fin nippers when not fed well...
But very appreciated for clearing snail infestations in planted setups!

Hi platanoeg, I dose everyday in the morning when i turn my lights on. As for the algae problem i know that excel only help my tank not have it. Do you do any dosing of ferts at all? And what wpg do you have and how long do you keep your lights on per day?
