I have a 96ltr tank with a 15W 40cm lighting system.
I have planted some broad leaf plants towards the back of my tank and the wide leaves are now covered in a dark brown algea. I do not have a problem with algea on the glass (nothing out the ordinary anyway). The room gets some natural light in the day (but not direct) and I switch my light on when I get home from work (5pm) and leave on until 11pm / 12pm.
The local pet store tested my water and said there is no alarming levels of anything. I think they tested Amonia, Nitrate, Nitrite and ph.
I don't have any sucker type fish in my community tank.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
