Okay great, I'll follow all that advice. So what is your suggestion for photoperiod at this point. Literature is saying in a new tank (and I think mine is considered new as nothing is really established). You should start at 6 hours and after some establishment, increase to 8-10 depending on your lighting intensity. So what photoperiod would you suggest?
And also, should you suggest no thrive at all in the meantime? Also, should I have phosguard in my filter or only use that for filter my hose water first.
