Re: Have I Been Given The Right Advice
10-12 dkH is the range you want to aim for. As for the diatoms if you search around here for threads dealing with them or algae problems you should find lots of info on how to handle it. I'm sorry for being so brief but I have to do some Calculus.

Re: Have I Been Given The Right Advice
Yeah take it slow. One thing you could do is to mix up a few water changes and slowly adjust the alkalinity through the wcs while exchanging dirty for clean. This should also help your diatom problem.
