I wanted to give an update on my hair algae bloom.
After watching several videos on how to handle hair algae. This is what I came up with.
Lights on for 8 hours
Set light intensity to 40% is key!
Weekly watering changes about 10%
I also bought floating plants
Here is a picture of my results.
I currently own an Ender 5 Max. I have added the camera and enclosure.
While looking through the control panel, I saw a red asterisk next to the firmware. It notified me that there is a new version of the firmware available.
I decided to update the firmware.
Now I get this error code.
See attached photos.
I just emailed #Creality customer service a detailed email.
Just waiting to see if I bricked my printer
​
I have a 10 gallon bookshelf tank with a Tidal 35 filter, Aquasky 600mm LED lights, and a 50 watt heater.
I noticed I caused a green hair algae bloom with my lights being programmed for 12 hours.
My substrate is releasing nitrates.
I cut the hours of light to 8 hrs
I also bought a bunch of floating plants to consume the excess nitrates.
I have already planted several plants and they have taken off.
