I’m running a FOWLR tank with room lighting (room lights are over tank so fish show up nicely anyway l, could probably improve with actual aquarium lights, but fine for now.
I have a refugium, with rocks (copepod farm), and a grow light that’s turned on overnight.
I can’t see a single speck of algae on the glass or rocks, of any description, anywhere, not even on the highest rocks directly under the grow light.
What I can see is a noticeable green tint to the water… I first noticed this a little after adding a frozen food that was highly green colored, but I’m not sure that’s the source as the tint has persisted for a while now. It doesn’t seem to be getting worse, but it ain’t getting better either.
Any idea what’s causing this or what I can do to cut it down?
