Re: how to Stop algae without chemicals

I'll try the toothbrush trick and look into flow. Got a HOB filter but maybe it's not enough. Appreciate all the help, gonna start with less light and less food.

Re: how to Stop algae without chemicals

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm doing weekly 25% water changes. The light's on for about 8 hours right now, so I'll try reducing it. Never thought about floating plants, gonna look into Frogbit.

how to Stop algae without chemicals

My tank's been overrun with algae lately, and I'm trying to avoid chemicals. Got any tips for keeping it under control naturally? I've got a 20-gallon with moderate lighting, sand substrate, and a mix of Anubias and Java Fern. Water params are good, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 10 nitrate.

adding kribensis and other fish to my tank

hi all

I'd really appreciate some advice from you guys, again.

My kribensis have started getting aggressive, which I'm guessing is because they're ready to mate. They've built a den under my log in the middle of the tank and are defending it pretty fiercely. The thing is, this has been going on ...
