  2. In order to figure out the consumption of elements required, daily measurement is necessary.

    Eg, test ur water, do not dose anything, then test water again at the same time the following day, U will know how much elements ur tank has consumed. Then dose according to the instruction, and test the same time next day, see if the parameters stay stably, dose a bit more if lower, a bit less if higher. Repeat testing for a period of time and find out the sweet point. Then setup ur dosing pump accordingly.

  3. I think u should try to do a few rounds of water change, at least 20-30% per round per week.

    I also have nuisance algae problem recently. So here are wat have been done, and I can see a lot improvement now after 1 week.

    Increased water change from 5% per week to 20%;

    Cut down fish feeding to once a day;

    Reduced plankton dosing to 2-3 times a week;

    Bought an urchin which is working hard n well;

    shortened the photo period by 1 more hour

    Manually remove some algae everyday

    Scraped some algae off before the water change n siphoned the floating algae n those settled on the sand bed

    Hope the above helps
