I have some easy plants in the tank, anubias and some others I forgot what. Anyways still cycling the tank, going to get dwarf puffers (and more plants too). Its a 20 gal. As soon as I put the plants in I got green water, so my bf went to the lfs and they gave him carbon and iron. Ive had plants in aquariums before but never used any of that. They are both in liquid form, what do I do and how much? And they said be careful when I get fish not to overdose it. Unfortunately my bf is the one that spoke to the lfs so I didn't get a good relay of info.

Carbon as a liquid? I dono about the Iron, but if you use carbon chunks it should remove all the green.
