I am dosing EI per the non co2 article so should be right on track with the ferts.

Yes it appears to be 2 watts per gallon but they are shop light with a cheap white reflector so I imagine my actual wattage per gallon is much lower. You may be right though. I'll wait a bit to change it though and give the plants a chance to acclimate

I will not be doing water changes but maybe once a month and they will be small. I plan on backing off of ferts to let uptake catch up if I get too much. I beleive this is what Tom's post suggests. CO2 will be stable because of minimal water changes, ferts will be stable as I will follow the same routine unless I OD and the lights will be stable 10 hours a day (The wattage may be lowered if need be or as suggested)

I plan on stability but the tank is only is its second day of operation so there really has been no chance for stabilty yet.

I just did some research and it turns our my algae is fuzz algae not hair algae. I'm new bare with me;-) Still makes me think I may have too much light.

Any other suggestions?
