So my brown algae is spiralling out of control. I went from almost no noticeable algae a week ago to algae all over the place.
About two weeks ago I traded my common pleco (5ā) for a small bristlenose (1.5ā). Would this be to blame?!
Water levels are all normal. Ammonia and nitrites 0 and nitrates are 5-10ppm. Ph is about 8.
The lights are only on for 8-10 hours per day and the tank is never in direct sunlight. Temp is 79 degrees.
how do I get rid of this stuff? Itās everywhere.
tank is 55 gallons and is stocked with glo tetras, neons, cherry barbs and Corycats. Nothing too crazy. No live plants.
see pics. What do I do?
