I used a hydrogen Peroxide spray to get rid of BBA on my anubias. I sprayed the affected plants and washed them off after 5 minutes. May have to do it a few times over a week or two.
Or just leave it on and watch your algae eaters have a field day! ha ha
 
How do you keep your plants so happy? Plants hate me. Except for hygrophilias. The hygrophilias in my 240 are growing like crazy, but various other species in my other tanks seemed determined to die.
 
I don't do much at all. Seachem Flourish Comprehensive half dose twice a week. TNC root tabs. That's it. My water is pretty hard and ph about 8.
 
Looks awesome!

@Retired Viking, have you looked at the amount/type of lighting you have? Do you dose any fertilizers? Algae is caused by to much nutrients/lighting.

Tanks are looking incredible! So good to see them. I remember your first posts very well, you're still who I think of as the person who made the fastest, most massive turnaround after being given terrible advice from that awful fish store dude. You worked the hardest too, and it paid off! Hope you have some photos of the blue eyed rainbows now that they've settled in a bit! Those were the ones you wanted the most I think I remember, so fantastic to hear that you finally have them! :wub:

Awwwwhhh mmmaaaaannnnnnnn. I think you may have missed the blue eyed rainbow chronicles. It’s all on here somewhere. If you’re at a loose end for a month or so it’ll help pass the time!
 
Oh the blue eyed curse continued. I finally got the fish about 3 months after ordering them and after they sent the wrong rainbow fish.

And then they died over about 3 weeks. I've only left! They were just too small & couldn't compete for food. I'd so many plants in the tank i was hoping they'd find food that settle in them but with endlers & Cories they just didn't manage.

Been really gutting. But I've one!! And 9 of the wrong fish - pseudomogil furcatus
