    Hi all,

    For the past 1 week or so, I realized that there are alot of red brown spots appearing on my plant leaves with tiny spots on my rocks.
    Can someone advise me is it due to nutrients deficiency or surplus or algae bloom?
    Weekly dose using only Seachem Comprehensive with some roots tabs inserted into my Dennerle Quartz gravel.
    Thanks.

    Ok. So does adding SAE & Horned Nerite snails helps & where can I get them?
    Thanks.

    Hi all,

    An update. Algae problems resolved with the introduction of Nerite & SAE.

    Cheers!.
