Re: algae outbreak
Tell us a little more about your tank.....size, lighting, how long of a photoperiod, water parmeters, calcium, alk, pH, nitrate for sure. Most algae is caused by an abundance of nutrients. The key is to find out what nutrients these are and reduce them. How often and what percentage of water changes are you performing?
Mexican Turbo Snails have been known to eat red algae but they get quite large and can wreck havoc on aquascaping. |
