Hi guys. I got an issue, huge issue with black algae which covers almost everything in my tank. 1st time ever in 5 years I have this tank my echinodorus plants started to grow like crazy & i even have dwarf grass growing in 1 corner (before its just weathered away & dissolve never could make it even root) but with all of that I aslo got tons of algae.... Its like I can get all together or nothing to grow in my tank. I dont use CO2 nor any supplements for plants. Basically I'm not green thumb person I stick plants in & its up to them to grow or not.
I change 30% of my water every week, I soaked all fish tank equipment in bleach & yet black algae persists. Its even on my ground now. Its even trying to grow on front glass.... So I'm think about lazy solution to add florida flagfish to help with that will they eat it??
Its a cichlid tank with also loaches, cories & glow tetras. Never had florida flagfish will they be competitive?
Water is balanced. Fish feels fine. Just lots of algae.
