    That's not overly high for your phosphates but your algae is probably masking the problem at the moment. I would just keep up what your doing and see how it progresses. Sounds like using tap water and feeding a little heavy before may have been the start. Now that you have fixed those things I think it will die off.

    I agree, I like mine so far...it's a little big and unsightly, but it seems to work well!
