This is probably a subject or question thats been asked on here and other forums countless times.... but what is this furry black stuff on my plants??? its getting a bit annoying and a bit disheartening when im putting nice plants in my tank and within a couple of weeks they look somewhat unattractive and growing fur like my nan!!!
Ive been apart of the fishkeeping hobby for 12 months, but have only really commited to giving the planted aquarium a serious go. in the begining id buy a plant or two, plant it and that be that. Now i have restarted the tank setup and introduced a plant base from JBL called aquabase, i use JBL manado for my substrate, use the daily plant fertiliser called ferropol 24 and i use the easy life pro vito weekly fertiliser. I also use the liquid carbon as i cant afford quite yet to have the co2 systems. Can anyone offer any advice to what things to look out for in regards to keeping algae away and what some of the otrher nastys that are detremental to plant health
thanks
