Spent one hour cleaning out hair algae. There's still a lot left. Cleaned the skimmer. Took out the powerhead in the back of the rock and cleaned it. Checked my parameters. Magnesium finally came up! the rest looked good so I'm not going to add anything today. Soon I need to set up my dosing pump. The temperature is up one degree which is good. I will wait one day and then raise it another degree to get it between 78-80. Cleaned the glass.
