Yesterday i got three Small Tiger Barbs for free since im good buddies with the owner of the shop and he wants to get rid of them so he can get some nicer fish. i also bought some lilly seeds since i think i need some plant life in my 10g. I bought a flourescent light and a bulb made for plant growth. the flourescent gives it a really cool glow.
But within a day of putting the new bulbs in, ive noticed that my pirate skeleton and ships wheel have little bright green patches on them. normally i wouldnt think much of a little algae growth, but i put the bulbs in last night and this morning they are already the size of this smiley
.
is it the flourescent bulb or the plant growth bulb. the algae is directly under the flourescent bulb and the filter.
Any quick fixes? i wont be able to go to the LFS until monday or tuesday
