Black brush/beard algae...
Anyone, please give me the secret to getting rid of this stuff! I have
tried using phosphate remover, but to no avail. I do not fertilize. I
change the water every week, about 40 gallons or so. here is a brief over
view of my tank if it helps.
125gallon, 240Watts of light (cool whites and AGA lights = 8 tubes @3'each),
an eheim 75 gallon, 2 fluval 203's, temp around 81 degrees, pH slightly
acid, less than 10 degrees GH, two yeast set-ups.
As far as fish go: three 1-1.5" discus, marbled gibb (~3"), 18 glolites, 12
ottocinclus, 1 redtail shark, an algae shrimp that doesn't eat algae but
eats plants (holding babies right now, oh joy!), and a ghost shrimp.
I cannot get my hands on the hallowed SAE, so pleas any other options?
