[APD] Browny Algea (??)
Hello all,
I have a 1 month old (set up) aquarium in which there are a few different
types of algea growing in. a bit of the spotty bright green stuff, and a
more significant amount of the brown coating stuff (diatoms??). What is
puzzling me is the random growths on some of my plants of thei hairy brown
fibery stuff with seems to accumulate/ grow what looks like brown debri or
deposits (not the usual hair algea). That's the best way I can describe it!
there's not much of it but is is quite unsightly. Anyone know if this is
algea??
Also, with the brown algea, anyone have a clue to which aquarium variables
it reproduces quickly in?
I've got a 130L (3') tanks w/ 2 30W lights (power-glo...), 5 cories, a
bristlenose, and an apisto. pH ranges 6.8-7.0, DIY CO2, no nitrites. P, KH,
NH4, GH unknown... waiting for the kits to arrive! Flourish tabs in the
substrate (fine gravel), and once/week dosing of Sera Florena. Oh, and tank
is reasonably planted, mostly with fast growers (except for the anubias and
the novazelandea!)
Thanks in advance,
-Seweryn
