Algae Problem!

[AJLee613]

my plants have these very thin arm pit hair looking things on them it looks ugly!

it is only a prob in one of my tanks

could it be beacause the lighting is better on that one?

it has juvinal african dwarf cichlids and some giant danios in it right now. so its very loosly stalked, wat do u think is good to get rid of this hair algae stuff.

its ugly.

i hate when plants get algae on them. how do i get past this madness!

Yeah i think its Hair Algae, its supposed to be very difficult to get rid of as far as algae goes.

Yeh - I tried pulling it off, and its like pulling teeth, but not as much fun.

Bin the plant probably the best bet, but its growing in the bog wood
