Hello,i have a 96ltr tank with a few plants,a rock,boat and a few little other things,the fish i have at the moment are 4 zebra danios,and 7 neon tetra's,i do approx a 20% water cahnge once a week,clean all the glass and ornamonts,but i am starting to notice that i am getting a lot of what looks like fur growth on the rock and boat,how can i get rid of this is there any fish you can buy to keep this down,any help appreciated
 
what colour is it. if it is hair algea then i suggest a few flying fox. siamese lagea eater. they are to my knowledge the only fish that will eat hair algea. all depends what colour teh hair is determines wether or not it is infact algea.
i wish i could help more.
 
if its Fury and black/red You have Black beard algae
I have it currently and only method I have seen to remove it is,
put the plant into a mixture of 14 part water 1 part bleach solution for a few minutes then rub the gunk off,
your plants wont look to good after but they should recover,

Obviously rinse your plant well in normal water after tho =)

ignore this is it aint Bba
