Re: Aquatic Plants Digest V3 #885



I have noticed that the kribs in my tank will pick at the BB algae (little tufts of black
algae on the edges of old leaves, short - no greater than 4 mm long) in the same fashion
that my flagfish do.  However, considering how much of this algae is left in the tank, I
would hardly call it eradication.
