Update:
Algae outbreak! lol. I go out today and yep, we got a lovely green starting to appear, only on the sand areas though. Gotta love the settle in period.....not! Oh and we also have diatoms just to top it off lol
This tank gets more ambient light than i thought it would, so for now the actual tank lights ill be staying off (unless i need a photo lol)
On the plus side, the stems are growing like weeds, so will be doing a bit of a stem shuffle today (bigger to the back, new smaller to the front)
