Looks like around day 7 or day 8 I probably could have cut back to around 1 dose per week. I wonder if the 2x per week dosing isn't fueling the cyano a bit. As the glucose is something I've never dosed before I don't know how little is needed but it is a very little amount. Seems hard to believe it would cause the cyano to grow back the way it did after day 8.

Then there's the fact it is starting to cut back a little and the interesting observation of the cells breaking apart like I saw.

Day 8 is also when the film algae on the glass really started to take off and need cleaned every day. But at the same time just the past couple days has started to get better.

I was thinking of cutting back to 1x per week but now considering still sticking with 2x per week to see where this goes.
